Arabiyat Prestige perfumes by scent family
The 99 Arabiyat Prestige perfumes with a note list fall into nine families. The largest is woody and green with 25 scents; 41 scents belong to two families.
How the families are made
Arabiyat Prestige does not sort its perfumes into families, so this guide does it from the notes. Every note belongs to one family: citrus and mint to fresh, apple and pineapple to fruity, jasmine and rose to floral, and so on. Each note a scent lists adds to its family, and rarer notes count for more, because bergamot and musk appear in half the range and say little about any one scent.
The family with the highest total is the scent's main family; a second one is added when it comes close. A scent without a note list is in no family: the guide does not guess. The grouping is this guide's own reading of the lists, not a statement by the brand.
