Description

The collection of seven perfumes came about as a result of an Arabic story concerning the character Nejma, who represents fate or coincidence and whose name means 'a good star' in Arabic. She is captured to be sold as a slave but the man who buys her ends up falling in love with her; he is spellbound by her sweetness and the natural perfume of her body. Their union produced seven daughters, each as beautiful as the last, and these were the inspiration behind the idea of seven perfumes. Each one is made with diverse ingredients but always with oud as the base and these extrait de parfum versions are no different. Reminiscent of a summer's day, Extrait Number 6 unveils top notes of Italian bergamot, cinnamon bark, lavender and coconut. The warm heart of incense resinoid, tonka bean, dark leather and ambergris then gives way to a dry-down of oud wood, white musk, black wood and benzoin that rounds out this oriental-musk extrait de parfum.£598 per 100.00ml
