SAAQI

SAAQI is a fragrance that invites you to slow down and become part of an ancient story. Inspired by the legendary Sufi wine bearer, it celebrates poetry, devotion and the timeless encounters that once took place along the Silk Road where India met Persia.

The fragrance captures the atmosphere of medieval taverns where merchants, poets and philosophers gathered to share stories beneath lantern lit arches. It is a tribute to beauty, connection and the search for something beyond the ordinary.

The opening reveals the opulent richness of red wine blended with creamy almond and the vibrant spice of black pepper. The effect is deep, warm and immediately captivating.

At the heart, tobacco, smoky notes and cedarwood evoke the haze of an ancient tavern filled with conversation and candlelight. The composition gains depth while maintaining its elegant balance.

As the fragrance develops, oud, vanilla, caramel, benzoin and musk create a velvety gourmand foundation. Sweetness and warmth are perfectly balanced by woody and balsamic nuances, resulting in a sophisticated and long lasting trail.

SAAQI is a fragrance where history, craftsmanship and modern niche perfumery come together in an unforgettable olfactory experience.
