Harem Rose

Throne of my lonely niche, my wealth, my love, my moonlight.

My most sincere friend, my confidant, my very existence, my Sultan

The most beautiful among the beautiful

My springtime, my merry faced love, my daytime, my sweetheart, laughing leaf.

My plants, my sweet, my rose, the one and only who does not distress me in this world.

My Istanbul, my Karaman, the earth of my Anatolia.

My Badakhshan, my Baghdad, my Khorasan

My woman of the beautiful hair, my love of the slanted brow, my love of eyes full of mischief.

I’ll sing your praises always,

I, lover of the tormented heart, Muhibbi of the eyes full of tears, I am happy.

Muhibbi

Written by Kanuni Sultan Suleyman to his beloved wife, Roxelana.

A wispy soft sensual cloud of musk envelops the secluded chambers of the Sultans’ Harem.

The exotic beauty of the concubines is enhanced by the sweet animalic notes of Amber and Benzoin, as they meticulously prepare themselves for the Sultans’ call in the hope to arouse and entice the discerning one.

The combining scents of warm rich Vanilla and the intoxicating Damascene Rose heightens the mood of sensuality in the quarters.

The velvety Cashmere aroma invites intrigue. It is carnality at its finest. The warmth of a fireplace is provided by Woods and the green crisp earthiness of Vetiver which brings a grounding substance to the sweet floral blanket.
