Opens with Taif rose and saffron — intense, floral, and slightly spiced. This is not a light rose; it arrives with presence and purpose, carrying the weight of something ancient and deeply considered. The rose of the prayer niche, not the garden.
At the heart, oud and geranium intertwine — a green, resinous depth that keeps the rose grounded and complex. The florals don't soften here; they deepen, revealing layers that reward patience and reward those who lean in.
Settles into a warm, earthy base of amber, musk, and sandalwood — rich, smooth, and enduring. A dry-down that carries the full meditative weight of its name long into the evening.
Top Notes: Taif Rose, Saffron Heart Notes: Oud (Agarwood), Geranium Base Notes: Amber, Musk, Sandalwood
• Dark Velvet Rose — an intense, oriental rose steeped in incense and resin; nothing like a light floral • Oud & Saffron Depth — a complex, layered composition rooted in Arabian perfumery tradition • Rich & Long-Lasting — the concentrated oil formula activates with skin warmth for maximum projection and endurance • Alcohol-Free — uses a lightweight synthetic carrier (DPG) that absorbs cleanly without drying the skin • 25ml — a generous, richly potent formulation; minimal application required
Ingredients ▾
Fragrance (Parfum) — a concentrated blend of aromatic compounds, including synthetic scent molecules (aromachemicals) and fragrance materials, carefully composed to create the Ward Al Mehraab profile. Dipropylene Glycol (DPG) — a clear, odourless synthetic solvent used as the carrier base in place of alcohol or heavy oils. Lightweight, skin-safe, and allows the fragrance to spread evenly and absorb gradually.
It depends on the concentration. Our Eau de Parfum typically lasts 4–8 hours, Perfume Oils 5–10 hours as they bind closely to skin, and our Extraits de Parfum are the most potent at 8–12 hours — often longer on fabric and clothing.
How do I apply it for the best results?
Apply to pulse points — wrists, neck, and behind the ears. Let it settle naturally rather than rubbing it in, which breaks down the top notes. For perfume oils, a little goes a long way.
