Afar: Extrait de Parfum

Regular price £130.00

A series of stories interwoven into an immersive encounter. Both nostalgic yet unfamiliar – Afar, Extrait de Parfum, transports you to distant lands through the conjuring of moments, both real and imagined.


An intuition led, extrait strength perfume based on three chapters of the author’s life. The complex dry down invites the wearer to immerse in a dance between nostalgia and the unknown; a delicate veil between belonging and longing. 

The home between two worlds 

A stretch far into the ether, Afar leaves a lingering embrace of familiarity.

“In a dream-like recollection of an unfamiliar world that somehow feels like home, Afar creates a sense of wonder that delicately belongs to everyone. The chasm between perception and memory.” Natasha, Founder & Formulator

Composition

Afar’s composition is based on an overdose of Cedars; imbuing its scent with the spiritual qualities of the revered wood. Cedar Lebanon, Cyprus Bark and Sandalwood join together with a generous dose of Agar Wood to envelope the base of the perfume and instil warm, grounding qualities.Frankincense, Vetiver and Oakmoss weave ancient references and encounters through the precious oils.

The central creamy accord elegantly marries Jasmine Tea and Jasmine Absolute with rare petals of a Turkish rose. The musky resinous notes of Vanilla Absolute and Linden Blossoms are lifted by delicate Yuzu and Bergamot rind, whilst Neroli petals float through the smoke of freshly brewed tea leaves. 

Afar’s delicate spicy undertones emanate a sense of warmth and nostalgia, a skin scent filled with wistful, yet renewing energy.

Formulation notes

Each perfume is mindfully handcrafted in Hackney Wick, East London with natural resins, absolutes, oils, botanicals and isolates. Aged for at least two weeks, the fragrance is unfiltered to retain its raw qualities.

Architecture

The bio-plastic fragrance lid is meticulously created by a 3D printer in London. Derived from renewable resources and comprising 70% recycled post-industrial materials, the fragrance cap is non-toxic and biodegradable.

The shape of the closure’s design was inspired by natural organic fluid forms that are elusive yet distinct, the illustration on each bottle drawn by Natasha depicts life’s non linear journey and the beauty of that very individuality.

The illustration on each bottle was hand drawn by the formulator, and depicts lifes nonlinear journey, and the beauty of that individuality.

Finally!

A natural alternative to the high street scents, we all need to be aware of what we are putting onto our skin daily and how it affects our health and this is made with such care and passion, long lasting and so unusual, I find this is better for me in the winter and would love SUN.DAY to bring out another fragrance. Amazing company, a real find.

Beautiful!!!

That honeyed yuzu opening with the white florals and oud is stunning. The jasmine tea note is lovely, it gives it a warmth. You have something so beautiful here.

Very Unique

Feels luxury, so much complexity in the notes, and each note it feels like you can smell. Lots of depth, overall is absolutely exquisite, quickly become one of my favourite in my collection. Would recommend.

Just so special…

I love Afar so much, I’m not exaggerating when I say it makes me smile and feel so happy when I put this on in the morning. Such a divine scent which is complex but refined and elegant at the same time. Genuinely love it and recommend to everyone. Love the bottle too. It’s like a sculpture.
