About 808
808 by Sense Dubai: A Woody Spicy Unisex Fragrance
Sense Dubai introduced 808 in 2024, a woody spicy fragrance created by perfumer Saed al Abbass for both men and women. It sits outside traditional gender lines while playing with contrasts: fresh fruit, warm leather, and dry woods.
The composition opens with a bright burst of mandarin, orange, blackcurrant, and pineapple, then moves into a heart of pink pepper, olibanum incense, leather, violet, ginger, iris, and yerba mate. The base rests on tonka bean, vetiver, white cuaba flower (amyris wood), cedar, and musk.
808 belongs to the woody spicy family, but its accords reach beyond that: fruity, citrusy, aromatic, powdery, sweet, ambery, and musky touches all appear in the blend. It is built as a unisex perfume, and the pairing of violet and incense gives it both softness and an airy, resinous edge.
At the top, mandarin and orange provide a juicy, luminous opening, while blackcurrant adds a sharp berry tang and pineapple brings a tropical sweetness. This first impression is ripe and lively, without becoming heavy.
The heart is where the fragrance becomes more complex. Pink pepper and ginger supply a mild heat, while olibanum incense introduces a smoky, meditative character. Leather adds a suede-like texture, and violet, iris, and yerba mate soften the composition with floral, earthy, and slightly green nuances.
The base is dry and warm. Tonka bean contributes sweet, almond-like depth; vetiver and cedar give woody structure; white cuaba flower—also known as amyris wood—lends a smooth balsamic feel; and musk wraps the whole with a clean, skin-like finish.
With only one recorded rating so far, 808 currently holds a 3 out of 5 average. That single score suggests a perfume that may appeal more to adventurous noses than to those looking for a conventional crowd-pleaser, but its spicy, incense-led character is worth exploring for fans of woody unisex scents.
Fans of woody spicy and incense-forward unisex perfumes, especially those who enjoy fruity openings and leathery, powdery drydowns.
808 is an intriguing unisex release from Sense Dubai: playful citrus and fruit meet incense, leather, and woods. It is not a safe, mass-appeal fragrance, and with one rating of 3/5 it clearly divides opinions. Still, for collectors who like bold, layered compositions, it deserves a personal test.
