Arabie לעומת Dune

Arabie is a polarizing and idiosyncratic fragrance that confuses many wearers due to its complex, spice-forward character and unexpected note combinations. While some appreciate its uniqueness and interesting dry opening with fruit and spice notes, others find it lacks cohesion and smells more like disconnected spice rack ingredients rather than a unified composition.

Dior Dune is a polarizing but highly respected fragrance that successfully captures the essence of hot sand and deserts with its unique, dry composition. While vintage versions from the 1990s are praised for their complexity and longevity, the modern formulation is considered significantly inferior, and the fragrance's intense, challenging nature means it's not suited for everyone despite its undeniable quality and artistry.
