Description
Rivière by Thameen is a captivating fragrance that launched in 2018, designed for both women and men. It opens with an intense, spicy warmth, where saffron and black pepper immediately make their presence known, offering a brilliant and piercing introduction. As it develops, the scent refines into a floral heart of Turkish rose, sage, and carnation, adding a sophisticated elegance. The dry down settles into a rich, enduring base of leather, oud, cypriol, and amber, creating a warm, sensual finish that gleams softly on the skin, much like the precious gemstones of its namesake necklace. This is a beautifully balanced composition, moving seamlessly from bright spice to deep, leathery warmth. Perfumer: Julia Rodriguez Pastor
