Zahra
PARFUM - 50ML
Zahra is a unique take on the floral tradition, composed of jasmin brought to Egypt by the Romans, Moroccan rose brought by Muslim pilgrims and Indian Sandalwood unlocked by ancient trade routes — it embodies the unique heritage of traditional perfumery.
A sharp opening arises with notes of Lemon and Fennel, the heart notes ensue with powerful Moroccan Rose and Egyptian Jasmin, the base elegantly strides in with notes of Oakmoss, Haitian Vetivert and a rich Indian Sandalwood — creating a truly serene aromatic wonder.
BACKGROUND
Floral fragrances are as old as the art of perfumery itself.
From ancient Egypt, to the Romans, to medieval Islamic and Indian perfumery, the impact of these civilisations on the history of scent cannot be emphasised enough.
The transitions of empires, the emergence of trade routes and the movement of people and pilgrims are much of what we have to thank for the diversity of perfumery and the raw aromatic materials that flourish across the earth, and Zahra embodies this historical significance and timeless resonance.
