I sit, hoping that they will, at some point, cross continents, make it through customs and land in my PO box.</p> <p>However, and I'm saying this smugly, now brands are looking to the Middle East for inspiration. Tom Ford, of course, set the ball rolling. He started a Middle Eastern trend with a couple of scent launches in his Private Blends collection, Oud Wood (heavy on the Oud) and Arabian Wood (a cheypre-based spritz). Both are respectable and wearable versions of the strong Oud scent popular in this country.</p> <p>Jo Malone Middle Eastern adventure will hit counters this month, with a limited edition quartet that is aptly named Cologne Intense. The black-tinted flacons are full of eastern promise. Sniff out the alluring Rose Water &amp; Vanilla, Iris and White Musk, Amber &amp; Patchouli and Oud &amp; Bergamot. In the true JM approach, all scents are heady when worn alone but can be mixed and matched for an individual experience.</p> <p>Giorgio Armani's new Armani Priv茅, Les Mille et une Nuits collection may have launched in Harvey Nichols, London, but started its life here as an idea from the bigwigs at L'Or茅al at their Jebel Ali HQ. The most romantic of the three is the Rose d'Arabie, which gives a subtle sweetness to the heady Arabian wood and spice mix.</p></p> <div class="ad-mpu"> <!--BEGIN Advert_Type5_MPU --> <!-- advert_type: Advert_Type5_MPU --> <!-- channelNameMPU: /thenational/Home/Lifestyle/Fashion --> <!-- scriptval: http://ad.doubleclick.net/adj/tn.ae_homepage/homepage_homepage;sz=300x250;tile=2;'+vars+';'+demographics+';'+surroundTag+';ar='+article+';lan='+admcdfp_sitelang+';!c='+category+';ord='+ord+'? --> <!-- noscript: http://ad.doubleclick.net/jump/tn.ae_homepage/homepage_homepage;sz=300x250;tile=2;ord=123456789? --> <script type="text/javascript"> //<![CDATA[ if(typeof(ord) == 'undefined') {var ord = ''; } if(typeof(surroundTag) == 'undefined') { var surroundTag = ''; } if(typeof(article) == 'undefined') { var article = ''; } if(typeof(category) == 'undefined') { var category = ''; } if(typeof(demographics) == 'undefined') { var demographics = ''; } if(typeof(vars) == 'undefined') { var vars = ''; } if(typeof(meta) == 'undefined') { var meta = ''; } if(typeof(Comp_Name) == 'undefined') { var Comp_Name = ''; } if(typeof(Country_Name) == 'undefined') { var Country_Name = ''; } if(typeof(Team_Name) == 'undefined') { var Team_Name = ''; } if(typeof(category) == 'undefined') { var category = ''; } if(typeof(admcdfp_sitelang) == 'undefined') { var admcdfp_sitelang = ''; } if(typeof(demographics) == 'undefined') { var demographics = ''; } var scriptval = 'tn.ae_homepage/homepage_homepage;sz=300x250;tile=2;'+vars+';'+demographics+';'+surroundTag+';ar='+article+';lan='+admcdfp_sitelang+';!c='+category+';ord='+ord+'?'; var noscriptval = 'tn.ae_homepage/homepage_homepage;sz=300x250;tile=2;ord=123456789?'; document.write('<script type="text/javascript" src="https://web.archive.org/web/20101109003938/http://ad.doubleclick.net/adj/'+scriptval+'"><\/script>'); //]]> </script> <noscript> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20101109003938/http://ad.doubleclick.net/jump/tn.ae_homepage/homepage_homepage;sz=300x250;tile=2;ord=123456789" target="_blank"> <img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20101109003938im_/http://ad.doubleclick.net/ad/tn.ae_homepage/homepage_homepage;sz=300x250;tile=2;ord=123456789" border="0" alt=""/> </a></noscript> <!--END Advert_Type5_MPU--> </div> <p> <p>Turning to one of the region's legendary beauties, Cleopatra, you can indeed achieve that flash of liner she so famously sported with Guerlain's Terracotta Loose Powder Kohl Liner. Its packaging is beautifully Moorish looking, and its powdery liner can be used to tint the upper and lower lids, and is nice smudged in the rim, too.</p> <p>And while there may be no evidence that the Queen of the Nile actually bathed in asses' milk or took gold facials, if you are so inspired, try an Elemis Skin Nourishing Milk Bath - I'm betting it's a vast improvement on asses' milk anyway. The product has been on the brand's best-selling list for 20 years, and rightly so. The vitamin-infused broth can be placed under a running tap or applied to dry skin for soft and smooth limbs.</p> <p>Embalming to preserve one's skin is equally as good in the land of the living - especially when you're cocooned in gold. The anti-ageing UMO 24k Gold Facial is available at Sisters Beauty Lounge in Dubai and Abu Dhabi. It results in such a glow, I book in for bimonthly treatments.</p></p> <p> <p><b>Three of the best gel cleansers</b></p> <p><b>Chanel Gel PuretE Rinse-off Foaming Gel Cleanser, Dh184</b> Great for sensitive skin types or those prone to acne as it doesn't irk the epidermis</p> <p><b>L'Or茅al Instant Freshness Foaming Gel, Dh45</b> A brilliant budget buy - it gets rid of make-up and keeps impurities in check</p> <p><b>Clarins Daily Energizer Cleansing Gel, Dh62</b> A gentle gel that neutralises the effects of hard water and ensures a brighter complexion</p> <p><b>La Prairie White Caviar Illuminating Serum</b></p> <p>The name and packaging say it all: luxury. With its caviar extracts packed with antioxidants promising to firm and nourish the skin, this eye elixir comes encased in a sparkling white pearlescent bottle capped with caviar-like beads. The experts who produced this decadent serum say regular use will make your skin younger looking as under-eye darkness fades and a new firmness and lift are noticed. The creamy texture does indeed feel luxurious and the serum smells divine (unlike the name suggests, there's no fish-like odour). It's also easily absorbed so you need only a small amount for good coverage. Yes, it's pricey, but after a few applications, skin does feel smoother and appears lighter and brighter. Perfect for a morning pick-me-up.</p> <p><i>Dh1,150, Bloomingdale's and Areej</i> </p> <div class="share"> <h2>Share this article:</h2> <a class="stbar chicklet ck_email" st_page="send"><img
