The beautiful, 60 carat pink diamond Noorolain Tiara has inspired this elegant rose fragrance.
Its signature note, the Taif Rose is especially prized in perfumery for its rarity. The rose itself has 30 petals and only grows around
the city of Taif. It takes around 40,000 flowers to produce one 10g bottle of this rose oil, since only the petals are used.

THE STORY: Regent Leather is a luxury fragrance from Thameen in association with The Rolls Royce Enthusiasts Club. Traditionally, Thameen selects a rare gemstone as the inspiration for each of its fragrances and it is only fitting that, for this project, they have chosen what is considered to be the finest diamond in the world – The Regent Diamond.
Over 300 years old, the Regent Diamond is 141 carats, cushion-cut and its colour is ‘of the first water’ that is, perfectly white and virtually flawless. The fragrance exudes luxury and privilege, opening with the daring juxtaposition of smooth vanilla and sharp lemon. At the heart, the perfumer has cleverly conjured a remarkable leather scent reminiscent of the interior of the Rolls Royce, a cocoon of craftsmanship that envelopes the wearer. The tone speaks of power and strong will, supported by spices and resins including a fine saffron and deep resinous labdanum. The base is glossy, a perfumed patina of elegant and timeless gurjum, cedar and patchouli.
THE FRAGRANCE: Regent Leather is hypnotic and has, in the manner of Rolls Royce, been ‘engineered’ – enabling the finest ingredients to revolve throughout the dry-down, thus the journey is both surprising and familiar by degree.

A unique Oud was selected from the South of India, one of the highest quality Oud oils, it is both angular and edgy.

“Often depicted in medieval tapestries alongside a young woman in a flowery and fragrant garden, I am an imaginary animal, wild and solitary. My immaculate body is that of a fabulous white horse. I carry on my forehead a single twisted horn neutralizing poison My ivory is sought after because it purifies the waters of its magical power I embody love and mystery I only appear in the light charged with the dynamic energy of my supernatural strength only creative minds can perceive. Can you dream hard enough to see me? Because I’m the animal that never was.” BLANCHE BÊTE is my legend.

In the beginning there’s vanilla, of course, but it’s an unexpected vanilla — subtle, ethereal, as if suspended, with a unique note of honeyed, powdery mimosa. Next comes a vanilla that’s gourmand but not heady, fruity but not baked, poised between a “real” vanilla ice cream and sweet promises that echo like languorous kisses. An unambiguous fragrance trail, conceived like a beckon, arousing the appetite, and casting a spotlight on whoever wears it. Whether your personality is discreet or, to the contrary, completely intense, this perfume is made for those who wish never to go unnoticed again.
“By day, I wear it like a signature: you know I’m there, my perfume identifies me. By night, it envelops me in sweet promises. It fills the space, slips into every corner of the mind — and makes others feel a void when I move away.” And if I’m no longer around and my absence has not yet become overpowering, it must be that I left something behind — a scarf, a jacket, a little bit of myself.”
A sublime union of extreme concentration and extended aging, this iconic creation becomes all the more extraordinary.
With an exceptional 56% perfume oil concentration, Epic 56 revisits the legends of the Silk Road, uncovering a deeper story of the critically-acclaimed Epic Eau de Parfum. After close to five months of aging, the quality of its signature notes – Rose, Spices, Frankincense and Woods – is accentuated by a deeper and more complex ambery construction, leaving a lasting impression on the senses.
What makes EPIC 56 WOMAN an “Exceptional Extrait”?
A fragrance is usually a mix of a concentrate (containing fragrant oils) and an alcoholic base. Some fragrances can also contain a bit of water and additives like liquid UV filters, stabilizers or colourants. Therefore, fragrances with a higher fragrance concentration contain more perfume oils and less alcohol, and vice-versa.
Usually, a higher perfume oil concentration means an increased performance of the fragrance (particularly longer lasting scent) – but the impact of oil concentration is much more complex and varies depending on each formula.

This luxurious amber oriental perfume is sensuous, soft and delightful with a resinous base.
The sparkling and piquant top notes of bergamot, pink pepper and cardamom are a fleeting pleasure, before the sensuous, velvety, buttery, powdery floral and ambergris heart envelops you. The oriental base of caramel, tonka, vanilla and the spicy smoky oud and cedar finally reveal a darker promiscuity. This scent is irresistibly sensuous on the skin and exudes luxury, seduction and charm.
INSPIRATION
The god Mercury was Messenger to the gods, as famous for his quick intellect, guile and charm as for his dark side: he was fickle, untrustworthy, promiscuous and the collector of souls to the underworld. He ruled wealth and fortune; commerce and fertility; science and medicine; and finally storytelling – from writers and poets to rascals and conmen! The most popular of the gods, Mercury was adored for his irresistible charm and wit and the inspiration for this sensuous and seductive scent.

A gourmand, floral and fruity fragrance designed entirely as a variation on texture. A mille-feuille of flaky sweetness, softness, and sensuality. A sparkling and juicy opening of mandarin and Italian bergamot with a joyful orange blossom flower and blackcurrant heart leads to a flimsy delight of marshmallow and airy sweetness of Chantilly cream that are addictive. The ambrette and musk base notes add a carnal touch to the composition. A glowing delight.
On the skin, the noblest ingredients in perfumery unite with groundbreaking molecules in the exaltation of a deep pink bouquet, like its bottle. Chantilly cream, a signature note, brings softness and gourmandise. They say that the famous ‘milk cream’ was whipped up by Procopio, the inventor of gelato, in honor of the prince and future king Louis XV at another grand French castle – Chantilly. True to its passion for the 18th century, Marly has reinvented this very cosmetic note. Oriana, the story of a heroine with character and a hypnotic sillage.
