Reserve
Four deeper fragrances in amber glass, made for evenings and occasions. 50 ml extrait de parfum, from Rs 1,900.
The Reserve Line
Four fragrances in amber glass with a domed gold cap — heavier bottles, deeper compositions, and the ones we would send you to for a wedding rather than a work day. All 50 ml extrait de parfum, from Rs 1,900.
What is in the line
Oudh e Meer is the only fragrance in the whole Aadab range composed entirely in-house. A soft, wearable oud with white musk, amber and sandalwood, lasting twelve to fourteen hours.
Iqbal is saffron, black rose and agarwood over leather and tobacco leaf. Dark, formal, and built for occasions.
Manto is the opposite kind of loud — minimal and sharp, grapefruit and ginger over ambroxan and vetiver. Our strongest projector by some distance.
Jaun is the easiest of the four to wear: peppery bergamot with lavender, geranium and vetiver, light enough for Karachi summers and ordinary days.
Why the names
Iqbal, who asked a nation to dream. Manto, who refused to look away. Jaun Elia, who made despair sound like music. And Meer, the master every poet since has answered to. The Reserve line is made for the evening, and for people who like to be remembered.
