So who came up with this name for a perfume, Burqa, yep, the stinking Burqa. As if the black garb is not on the nose to many of us already.
The perfume was made by the SoOud Perfume House which perfumer Stephan Humbert Lucas founded in 2010 and I think it is provoking. Seems strange that he would name a perfume Burqa when France has just banned the cloth.
First instance that springs to mind for me when I think Burqa is, hidden, secret, alienated, covered, suspicious, drab,. Not mysterious or enigmatic.
I wonder what it smells like, what is the aroma, the scent?.
I am going to close my eyes and image Burqa perfume, ready?!...., I sense the smell would be dusty, an earthy smell, spicy bitter tones with traces of olive and cedar wood. It would be the colour of blood red and would be in every corner store, easy to find but would cost a fortune.
......and I gotta' know, is it halal!? ;p
.
The official description for 'Burqa' is (woody oriental) ~ “Like pure blood flowing, mystical and fluid, from every temple, with tones of Chinese ink and bewitched by essences of hard wood, this anthracite fragrance is a liquid incense with a notable prestige and elegance.” With notes of jasmine, rose, black violet, cardamom, sage, leather, benzoin, myrrh, black ink, rubber sap, black amber, teck wood, patchouli and guaiac wood.”
Other perfumes from the line: Kanz (le trésor) - Ouris (la sublime) - al Jana (le paradis) - Fam ( la bouche) - Hajj (le pur) - Asmar (le brun) - Nùr (la lumière)
Muslim women are permitted to wear perfume for their husbands but not wear it out in public.
