DESCRIPTION

Sultan's Shamama is a classical Indian attar, meticulously crafted for HM Sultan Qaboos. This exquisite fragrance is not just a scent but a celebration of the ancient art of Indian perfumery, emanating from the fragrant streets of Kannauj, a city famed for its centuries-old perfume traditions.
Shamama, an essence at the heart of this fragrance, is a testament to the patience and skill of traditional perfumery. Each batch of Shamama can take several months to create, involving a complex and time-honoured process of distillation. Natural ingredients like essential oils, herbs, and floral extracts are carefully blended and distilled over a slow fire, a method passed down through generations. This lengthy and intricate process is essential in achieving Shamama's rich, deep, and multifaceted aroma.
In Kannauj, known as the 'Perfume City' of India, every distillery and family holds their own closely guarded recipe for Shamama, making each creation distinct and unique. Sultan's Shamama is a culmination of this legacy, blending the rich traditions of Kannauj with a touch of royal opulence.
The fragrance opens with a captivating rose and camphoric note, paired with musk and spices, creating an enchanting first impression. This leads into the heart of the fragrance where saffron, a spice revered for its luxuriousness, weaves its warm and exotic character. Hindi Oud adds depth without overpowering, harmonising subtly with the other fragrances
As Sultan's Shamama settles on the skin, it leaves a symphony of spices and the revered Mysore sandalwood, creating a lasting aura. This carefully crafted blend ensures a remarkable experience, reminiscent of the fragrant streets of Kannauj.

"Upon my first experience with Sultan's Shamama, I was instantly transported back to my early encounters with traditional fragrances. This scent evokes memories of the fragrances adorned by Shaykhs from the Indo-Pak region. The meticulously crafted combination of spices, rose, and herbs, distilled over an extended period, results in a fragrance that is both unique and immediately familiar. Its unique blend captures the essence of a cherished heritage, resonating deeply with my own sensory nostalgia. Given its complex creation process, replicating this fragrance using my atelier would be an incredibly challenging feat, underlining the skill and artistry that goes into crafting such an exquisite scent."
