The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Shafaq by Ard Al Zaafaran, launched in 2022, is a Floral Fruity fragrance that weaves together the warmth of vanilla and coconut with the freshness of tangerine and orchid. The composition opens with bright notes of almond and tangerine before transitioning into a heart of floral and nutty accords, anchored by a powdery base of heliotrope and cedarwood. This fragrance is designed to evoke the grace and emotion that Ard Al Zaafaran is known for, offering an experience beyond the ordinary.

How to wear it

Apply two sprays for an even distribution — the bright top notes are vibrant but fade within an hour, making way for the warm base that lingers throughout the day. Best suited for indoor settings where its intimate warmth can truly shine.
