Swiss Arabian Muattar Incense 01 Review: Warm Woody Amber - Product Image

Swiss Arabian Muattar Incense 01 is a 2025 unisex fragrance from Swiss Arabian, credited to perfumer Tamara Rayes. It sits in the woody and spicy families, with official descriptors that include fresh incense. The composition brings together frankincense, rum, juniper and bergamot at the top; fig, hazelnut, roasted nuts, almond and lily of the valley in the heart; and a base of frankincense, vanilla, sandalwood, dark chocolate, cedarwood and moss. The result is a warm, resinous and nutty-sweet scent built for cool weather and evening wear. The name deserves a note. Muattar Incense 01 is Swiss Arabian's muattar, or incense/bakhoor-style, format of the same composition as Incense 01. The fragrance data lists a $68-$70 USD price range, with the 100 ml EDP and the Muattar incense format at $70. Known concentrations include EDP and Extrait de Parfum. This review is based on the verified notes, accords and performance data supplied for the release; it does not invent comparisons or sub-ratings where none were provided.

Scent Journey

Opening 0-30 min

The first 0-30 minutes leads with frankincense, rum, juniper and bergamot. The incense is lifted by a boozy rum note and a cool juniper-bergamot edge, while the warm spicy and woody accords begin to emerge.

Heart 1-2 hrs

At roughly 1-2 hours, the heart brings fig, hazelnut, roasted nuts, almond and lily of the valley. The composition turns nuttier, fruitier and sweeter, with the fresh floral note keeping the roasted hazelnut and almond from becoming too dense.

Drydown 4+ hrs

From 4+ hours, the base settles into frankincense, vanilla, sandalwood, dark chocolate, cedarwood and moss. The result is a warm woody-amber resin with sweet vanilla and cocoa touches over creamy sandalwood and cedar.

Layering Ideas

Layer with a simple vanilla or sandalwood fragrance to amplify the sweet woody base.
Avoid pairing with fresh aquatics or citrus-heavy scents if you want the incense and nutty notes to remain dominant.
Use fewer sprays for office wear because the first two hours project strongly.

Final Verdict

Swiss Arabian Muattar Incense 01 is a warm, unisex woody-spicy composition that pairs frankincense and rum with fig, hazelnut and a vanilla-sandalwood base. Its 7-8 hour skin longevity, strong early projection and $68-$70 price make it a compelling cool-weather option for incense and gourmand-adjacent fragrance fans. It is not a summer freshie, but for fall and winter evenings it offers a rich, accessible signature.
