The name itself is derived from two Japanese words, “Wabi” and “Sabi,” each contributing a unique dimension to this extraordinary fragrance. “Wabi” represents the simplicity, impermanence, and flaws that are inherent in all aspects of life, while “Sabi” embodies the transformative effect of time on objects and substances. Together, “wabi-sabi” invites us to see the intrinsic beauty in the imperfect, the aging, and the transient.

“there was a storm of oud brewing in the bottle
ballad of roses & jasmine from a hundred stormy nights
but also to there was a light
a warm wind of saffron
from a distant shore
so that’s where I headed
towards her light
that shone with gentle seas of ambergris”
