Taif Rose 2021

Rated 4.83 out of 5 based on 12 customer ratings
(12 customer reviews)

A breathtakingly sweet and rosy pink affair, this is the 2021 distillation of Taif Rose otto, an olfactory gem that I’m proud to be able to offer you – direct from its distiller in the mountains of Taif.

This oil comes from a distillery nestled within the fields of roses up in the mountains, allowing them to distill their oil from freshly-harvested roses soon after they are picked in the early hours of the morning.

The reason I mention this is that not all distilleries in Taif have their own fields, and hence can wait up to midday or beyond for their deliveries of roses to arrive, by which time of course it’s possible that the roses have started to deteriorate due to the length of time since picking, as well as the effects of heat and transportation.

Aromatically, this is the gorgeously signature Taifi Rose oil through and through, though this distillation is slightly sweeter, softer, and more rosy-pink than last year’s offering, which was more citrusy and bright.

To me, this has overtones of a very sweet, juicy and floral lychee with mild green, metallic, spicy and citrusy nuances which balance it out beautifully. Overall, a simply gorgeous aromatic that I very highly recommend.

 

About the Taif Rose:

Every year, around April, the gardens in the harsh and foreboding mountains of Taif turn a breathtaking pink.

No one is quite sure how the 30-petaled Damask Rose made it there. From tales of the Ottoman Empire transplanting it from the Balkans to legends of its arrival from India, the Taif Rose’s origins are shrouded in mystery.

One thing is certain, though. From the mountain gardens of Taif, today the world’s most precious rose oil descends.

    All I can say is wow, Muhammad never fails to impress me with his products, customer service and positivity. This rose oil is unbelievable, I cannot express how good it smells. There are very few scents that truly wow me, that make me stop and just take a minute to recompose my thoughts and come back to reality, this is one of them! The rose froze at low temperatures too which I now is a good sign for pure rose oil! I have tried most things in Muhammad’s online stable and this for me personally takes the top spot. Once again Ashworth Oud is on its way to take the no.1 spot in essential oils, thank you Muhammad!

    Lachlan Neal – July 30, 2021

    A very high quality Taif Rose distillation. It has all the nuances you’d expect from Taif Rose; citrus / lime brightness, luminous pink rosiness, rounded sweetness, sharp spiciness. Zero off notes. Ethereal, yet invigorating. Wears beautifully by itself, but incredible mixed with Indian Oudh. At this price, you can’t go wrong!

    My wife is and I would have given 7/10 which 3.5 from the scale given above.
    The fragrance is pleasant and good. For our budget it is relatively expensive.

    My 2nd purchase of this excellent Taif oil. Beautifully pink rosy, rounded sweetness, bright citrusy & spicy. Everything is in its right place. Ethereal & clear. I’ve tested many different Taif distillations & this is among the very best. No hesitation needed, if you love Taif Rose I’d recommend wholeheartedly.

Ruh Khus 2020

Botanicals
Rated 4.87 out of 5
From £14.00
This is a beautiful example of India's famed Ruh Khus, the essential oil distilled from the roots of wild vetiver plants (Vetiveria zizanioides) in northern India. Distilled in 2020, it now has a beautifully soft and rounded profile with almost no harsh notes, displaying a soft and yet ultra-dense character instead (much like oud and sandalwood, vetiver improves with age, the scent becoming deeper and more rounded). Testing on my skin, it opens up with a quiet, complex and yet very smooth leathery and rooty profile - a touch more than others I've encountered - before slowly revealing its classic Ruh Khus profile: an incredibly rich bouquet of green grass along with leafy, earthy, rooty, leathery and woody notes that lasts for many hours. Gorgeous worn neat as a standalone attar, its excellent tenacity and fixative properties also make it an exceptional base note and ingredient in natural perfumery, working well in fougères, chypres and mossy, woody and green accords amongst others. Note: • As with all natural materials, the scent, colour, and profile can vary slightly from batch to batch. Please note reviews include those from previous batches Collection:  Kannauj Chronicles In the Kannauj Chronicles, I explore and share with you the wonderful natural oils and attars of India’s historic perfume capital, Kannauj. The oils in this collection are pure botanical extracts and attars distilled in sandalwood oil by some of Kannauj's most renowned and trusted artisans, who share our passion for distilling the highest quality of aromatics and attars. These attars are distilled using the ancient ‘deg and bhapka’ apparatus; a traditional distilling method largely unchanged for 400 years. I hope you enjoy these breathtaking scents of nature from a bygone era, an era fast being forgotten in today's race towards modernity and industrialisation at all costs.

Santal Ceylon Red

Botanicals
From £10.00
Distilled from wild santal roots in 2021, Santal Ceylon Red is a gorgeous Sri Lankan sandalwood oil oozing with notes of gourmand red woodiness throughout. Unlike many other Sri Lankan santals which open with sharp piney-camphoric top notes - which I also adore - this oil is all about deeply rich base woods from the get-go. Opening with freshly sawn woods alongside perhaps a slightly lactonic touch, it soon begins to transform into a sweet honeyed profile that reminds me of powdered almonds and tonka bean’s coumarinic marzipan-like goodness. This golden-hued coumarin-like sweetness balances out a base of freshly sawn, almost dark red woods throughout the oil's journey, with some creaminess, and perhaps even a slightly musky animalic warmth deep down in its layers adding to its beautiful complexity and depth. Overall, with its rich woody character and gorgeous sweetness, this makes for an exceptional sandalwood oil to wear neat. I also think it would work fantastically in blends and macerations, especially where musk or civet is used or where a strong woody character is desired.

Bourbon Vetiver

Botanicals
Rated 4.71 out of 5
From £7.00
This is an exceptionally beautiful Bourbon Vetiver essential oil from Reunion Islands that is rich and complex and yet ultra suave and smooth, making it gorgeous worn as an attar or as an ingredient in the natural perfumer's arsenal. Testing on my skin, the aroma immediately oozes with the soft warmth of baked earth, clay, roots and dry soil with a touch of woods, petrichor and campfire smoke. I also detect a beautiful undercurrent of warm sweetness throughout, calling to mind labdanum, tolu balsam, sandalwood, and a variety of other resins and woods that it would pair well with. As a heavy base note, it displays typical soft projection with incredible tenacity, lasting for many days on a paper strip. It also makes for a great study in comparison with Ruh Khus, the wild North Indian variety, which is a much more green, grassy and wet soily affair. Overall, this is a truly beautiful vetiver oil and one that I'd definitely recommend for vetiver connoisseurs and natural perfume enthusiasts alike.

Patchouli, India

Botanicals
From £6.00
Botanical Name: Pogostemon cablin Origin: India, 2022 Process: Iron-Distilled Essential Oil, Dark Note: Base Perfumery: Excellent fixative This is a gorgeous iron-distilled Indian patchouli oil bursting with its characteristically sweet, warm, rich, herbaceous, spicy, minty, woody, and earthy profile that makes it so valuable in natural perfumery and perfumery at large. Comparing this Indian distillation to the more common Indonesian one, I personally prefer the Indian variety due to its deeper and richer profile that feels more earthy, chocolaty, and almost caramel-like in its sweetness, compared with its more herbaceous, minty and fruity Indonesian counterpart that feels lighter and more top-note heavy. An incredibly versatile oil due to its outstandingly beautiful and complex profile, patchouli is a great fixative that can find use in almost all accords, from earthy, green and forest-type blends to spicy orientals, florals, and woods. It also improves with ageing if stored correctly, and should become smoother, rounder and fuller in profile with time.
