EAU DE PARFUM

A woody, floral orris perfume, composed with star perfumer Ralf Schwieger

'Perfume Extraordinaire' Finalist at the Fragrance Foundation Awards 2021

A fairytale Uzbek city on the Silk Road. Fruits and spices – sophistication and adventure. A journey into Central Asia.

Bukhara is an earthy perfume, composed around the enigmatic orris – one of perfumery’s most prized (and expensive) raw materials.

Spicy, fruity and sparkling in the opening with caraway, pear, coriander and bergamot.

A floral heart with orris and a touch of jasmine. Clove and apricot enrich the colours and textures.

And a base of benzoin resin, saffron, amber, wood and cotton-soft musks.


Key notes: caraway, pear, ambrette, orris (iris), osmanthus, jasmine, apricot, clove, saffron, amber
