Our DIRHAM Fragrance Oil is 98% close to the original DIRHAM perfume launched by the Ard Al Zafran brand in 2014. It has the same notes as are present in the original scent profile. Top notes are Lemon, Bergamot, Lavender, Cardamom, and Jasmine; middle notes are Rose and Jasmine; base notes are Cedar, Sandalwood, and Vetiver.
This formulation is a technical reconstruction achieved through gas chromatography and mass spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis. Unlike the original EDP, this concentrated oil eliminates the ethanol-driven volitility spike, ensuring a more stable molecular bond with the epidermis. The absence of a de-natured alcohol carrier prevents the rapid flash-off of top-note monoterpenes, resulting in a smoother, more linear evaporation curve.
Fragrance Notes
- Top Notes: Lemon, Bergamot, Lavender, Cardamom, Jasmine.
- Heart Notes: Rose, Jasmine.
- Base Notes: Cedar, Sandalwood, Vetiver.
How It Performs
The molecular stability of this oil is superior to alcohol-based sprays. High concentrations of Hedione facilitate transparency and diffusion in the heart, while a dense matrix of Iso E Super in the base provides a persistent woody sillage. Longevity is measured at 10-12 hours on skin. Diffusion is moderate but consistent, maintaining a 1.5-meter scent bubble for the first 6 hours of wear.
Best Times to Wear
This fragrance is optimized for temperatures between 20°C and 35°C. The cooling properties of the citrus-lavender accord make it an ideal choice for office environments and high-humidity climates. It is a versatile choice for daily wear, particularly during the Spring and Summer months when the heat facilitates the steady release of the aromatic molecules.
Pros & Cons
| Pros | Cons |
|---|---|
| Extended 12-hour longevity due to oil base. | Lacks the initial alcohol “blast” projection. |
| High skin compatibility; no alcohol dryness. | Heavier feel on skin in extreme heat. |
| 98% accuracy to the original DIRHAM profile. | Requires 10 minutes for full heart-note development. |
How It Compares
While the original EDP relies on a high percentage of alcohol for immediate projection, our oil variant focuses on depth and fixative strength. After the 30-minute maceration period on the skin, the scent profile is indistinguishable from the original. The sandalwood and vetiver base notes are more pronounced in this oil version, as they are not obscured by escaping solvent vapors. This product is priced at Rs. 1,499 for 12ml.
What Customers Say
“The accuracy is remarkable. It stays on my skin for the entire workday without the need for reapplication.”
“The lavender note is much smoother here than in the spray version; there is no chemical harshness in the opening.”
Any Questions?
1. How do I apply this oil correctly?
Apply to pulse points where heat is highest to facilitate the diffusion of the aroma chemicals.
2. Will it stain my clothes?
Due to the high concentration of natural oils and fixatives, we recommend applying directly to skin and allowing 2 minutes for absorption before dressing.
3. How long does a 12ml bottle last?
Given the high concentration, a 12ml bottle typically lasts for 4-6 months of daily use.
