Sea salt, ginger and woods: Raqm starts with an aquatic, mineral idea, but the sources disagree on several notes in its pyramid. Following your source priority, we favour Fragrantica over IFragrance where they differ; the official website confirms size and price but does not publish a note list.
Nusuk is a sister brand of Riiffs. Raqm is listed as a 2026 release, and the official store offers it as a 100 ml Extrait de Parfum.

A salty opening, a woody base
Riiffs’ official store describes Raqm as an elegant, fresh fragrance and confirms that it is sold as a 100 ml Extrait de Parfum. It does not list the notes. The woody aquatic classification and pyramid below come from Fragrantica.
How it smells: Fragrantica’s pyramid
Fragrantica lists a concise composition: sea salt and ginger up top; seaweed and vetiver at the heart; cedar and oakmoss at the base. We have not tried the fragrance, so our descriptions interpret the listed materials rather than claim a personal wearing experience.
Top notes
the first minutes- Sea salt
- Ginger
Sea salt gives the opening its saline, mineral edge; ginger adds a fresh, spicy contrast, according to the notes published by Fragrantica.
Heart notes
the first hours- Seaweed
- Vetiver
Seaweed extends the marine character while vetiver adds a green, earthy, woody facet. This is the heart listed by Fragrantica.
Base notes
what lingers on the skin- Cedar
- Oakmoss
Cedar supports the dry, woody side; oakmoss adds a green, earthy nuance. Fragrantica places both notes in the base.
Why the sources differ
IFragrance adds more materials and assigns them differently: ozonic accord, water and ginger CO₂ alongside sea salt on top; amberwood, oakmoss and seaweed in the heart; and driftwood, white musk and dry amber at the base. Fragrantica instead places vetiver in the heart and cedar and oakmoss in the base. The official listing does not publish a pyramid that could settle the difference, so we follow Fragrantica and keep the other version attributed and separate.

Woody leads Fragrantica’s profile, with marine close behind. Earthy, aromatic, salty and mossy accords reinforce a mineral, green impression; these are relative community ratings, not measurements of intensity.
First opinions
Fragrantica rates it 4.61 out of 5 from 33 votes. Twenty-three people chose “love” and eight “like”; the other two ratings were one indifferent and one dislike. That is a positive early response, although the sample remains small.
Community preferences lean towards summer (22 votes) and spring (15), and daytime (21) over evening (6). These are user votes, not wear tests for longevity or projection.
Who might enjoy it?
Its woody aquatic profile and marine, salty and green accords may appeal to someone looking for a fresh scent with more structure than a straightforward citrus. The community associates it especially with spring, summer and daytime wear. The published pyramid cannot tell us how it develops on skin.

Price and availability
Riiffs’ official store lists the 100 ml bottle at AED 150, taxes included. IFragrance separately reported a CA$40.24 offer at FragranceBuy.ca; that is another retailer’s price and may vary by country, promotion and date. The two prices are not directly comparable. Amazon.es showed EUR 29.99 when the link was checked on 15 October 2026; prices may change.

Our early take
On paper, Raqm has a clear direction: salt, water and woods, with a green twist from seaweed and vetiver in Fragrantica’s pyramid. The official listing confirms concentration, size and price; the notes remain a Fragrantica description because Nusuk does not publish them on its store page.
- It promises: a woody aquatic profile with sea salt, ginger, and a cedar and oakmoss base.
- It promises: 100 ml in Extrait de Parfum, according to the official store.
- To check: how vetiver, seaweed and the base develop on skin.
- To check: longevity and projection; community ratings do not measure either.
- To check: final price and shipping terms in each country.
