The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2025 by Ard Al Zaafaran, Liwan is a Leather fragrance that blends sweet and fruity accords with aromatic and woody notes. The composition opens with pineapple and pink pepper, creating an initial burst of freshness that transitions into the heart of bergamot, grapefruit, rosemary, osmanthus, and ylang-ylang. This leads to a base layer of caramel, leather, amber, musk, patchouli, and vetiver — a complex interplay of warmth and depth. Liwan is an invitation to experience something beyond the ordinary, carrying the emotion and grace that Ard Al Zaafaran is known for.
One or two sprays are sufficient to capture Liwan's full essence. The pineapple and pink pepper in the top notes provide an immediate burst of freshness, while the base notes of leather and amber develop gradually over time. This fragrance works best in a setting where its warmth can be appreciated close up rather than from across a room.
