"First Glance, a vibrant yet sensual offering by HABIBI, embodies the spirit of a confident, strong woman who is not afraid to share her thoughts and emotions; she exudes grace and charm. A woman who's truly ‘Passionate' about all things dear to her. You will spray this on and think..."I'm ready for anything."Bursting forward and inviting you to notice its presence, First Glance hugs your senses right from the beginning by its melding of bright citrus, fresh and sweet fruits, and spice notes. After making its statement known, these notes transform… revealing a warm, romantic heart of rose, jasmine, and green foliage. As First Glance mellows, its woody tones, including cedarwood, patchouli and amber, grace you with warmth and evoke a nostalgia that is ever-reminding of the First Glance. Simply put... this one's a delight to wear!" - a note from the brand.
