SHEHERAZADE 15ML

SCHEHERAZADE

The 1001 Nights Reimagined: 33% extrait

Arabian tradition has always married bakhour with gourmand pleasure—the sacred dance of incense smoke curling around plates of warm dates, saffron coffee, and sweet desert air.

Elixir Attar once explored the darkest side of this ritual with Dark Matter—a brooding, smoky universe. Now comes its counterpart, its balance... its yang.

Sheherazade is the luminous storyteller of 1001 Nights—an olfactory tale of incense, sweetness, spice, and ethereal smoke. And this fragrance is profoundly special, it marks the perfumery debut of my wife, Günel Yusifzada, who took the ancient tradition and shaped it through modern precision, creating a scent that feels both ancestral and visionary.

THE CONCEPT

Where Dark Matter was shadow, Sheherazade is glow.  Where Dark Matter enveloped the night, Sheherazade unveils the stories within it.

This fragrance intertwines a ridiculous number of facets, each engineered to move in harmony:

Warm Arabian spices  Green-soft Hainan Oud for breath and elegance  Sun-drenched dates for a natural gourmand glow  Incense  Engineered smoke — the refined signature of Elixir Attar.

THE SCENT JOURNEY

Opening: A burst of spices and aromatic warmth—like entering a majlis where bakhoor burns and saffron coffee awaits.

Heart : Soft green Hainan oud merges with velvety dates, creating a warm, edible serenity without ever becoming sugary.

Base : Here lies the soul of Sheherazade—the finest smoke Elixir Attar has ever crafted. A highly refined incense trail that rises and dissolves with hypnotic softness, never harsh, always inviting.

THE EXPERIENCE

Sheherazade is both memory and fantasy.

It is the glow of bakhoor at dusk, the warmth of dates at dawn, the whisper of spices carried through palace halls, the comfort of oud, the softness of smoke.

More than anything, it is a testament to my wife’s artistic instinct—her ability to take the essence of Arabian ritual and translate it into a perfume that feels alive.
