The Evolution of Melati Gaharu: A Limited 30ml Release

A New Chapter in the Jasmine-Oud Journey

Melati Gaharu began with a simple yet unconventional idea—to break away from the traditional floral-oud pairing of rose and oud and instead explore the endless possibilities of jasmine and oud. This concept was not about defying tradition but about expanding its boundaries, allowing both ingredients to express themselves in ways rarely explored before.

Each batch of Melati Gaharu has been a reflection of my personal journey, evolving alongside my discoveries of new ouds and new jasmines. With each iteration, the fragrance has grown in complexity, becoming more layered, intricate, and rich with nuance. This ongoing evolution has not been a matter of mere experimentation but an intentional pursuit of excellence—refining and deepening the olfactory story of Melati Gaharu.

Over time, many have asked for 30ml bottles of our perfumes, with Melati Gaharu being the most requested. It is with great excitement that we announce the upcoming release of a limited batch of 30ml bottles, alongside all our other perfumes in the coming months. This particular batch of Melati Gaharu will be the finest it has ever been, incorporating an even greater array of ouds and jasmines sourced from across the Asian continent.
