Misk Begum

Misk Begum is an opulent fragrance that beautifully weaves the richness of musk with the elegance of florals, inspired by the nobility and grandeur of Turkic royal women. The name itself, Misk meaning musk in Arabic, and Begum, a title of high esteem, evokes a sense of regal allure and timeless beauty. Misk Begum is an enchanting fragrance that elicits feelings of hope and nostalgia, much like a begum awaiting her prince, enveloped by the majestic atmosphere of a lush, verdant garden.

The fragrance opens with a bright and refreshing burst of grapefruit and orange, instantly uplifting the senses with its zesty citrus notes. These top notes are softened by the delicate and exotic aroma of flower absolute from Tunisia, adding a touch of floral sweetness to the lively introduction.

As the scent evolves, the heart reveals a lavish bouquet of florals and fruit. The pear accord brings a crisp, juicy freshness that is balanced by the green floral accord, which evokes the scent of morning dew on lush greenery. This is further enriched by a blend of classic florals, including rose, jasmine, lily of the valley, orris, and freesia, creating a complex and romantic floral heart that captures the beauty of the palace garden. The inclusion of orchid and heliotrope adds a powdery, sweet depth to the composition, making the floral notes all the more captivating and luxurious.

The base of Misk Begum is where the fragrance settles into its warm and sensual signature. Guaiac wood oil and sandalwood oil introduce a rich, woody foundation that is both earthy and comforting. The creamy warmth of amber enhances the overall richness, while white musks and ambergris add a soft, animalic quality, wrapping the fragrance in a delicate, lingering trail of sensuality.
