Khol de Bahrain – Eau de Parfum

Stéphane Humbert Lucas  - KHÔL DE BAHREÏN - Collection 777 - Eau de Parfum

KHÔL DE BAHREÏN is a luxurious and complex perfume by STÉPHANE HUMBERT LUCAS that captures the exotic and mysterious atmosphere of the Middle East. KHÔL DE BAHREÏN is rich in deep, sensual notes and conveys a feeling of opulence and elegance.

The first impression of KHÔL DE BAHREÏN is mesmerising, with the rich and spicy note of saffron combined with the sweetness of red fruits. At the heart of the fragrance KHÔL DE BAHREÏN by STÉPHANE HUMBERT LUCAS, the elegance of rose and violet unfolds, harmonising with the creamy and sweet nuances of gurjum balsam.

The base note is long-lasting and deep, with warm notes of amber, vanilla and white musk that ensure a sensual and cosy finish. Gurjun balsam, also known as gurjum balsam, is a natural resin extracted from trees of the Dipterocarpus genus. These trees grow mainly in South East Asia, particularly in countries such as India, Indonesia, Malaysia and the Philippines. The balsam is obtained by scratching the bark of the trees, whereby the resin oozes out of the wounds and is collected.

Gurjun balsam has a warm, woody and slightly spicy fragrance. It is often described as earthy, balsamic and smoky, with subtle resinous undertones. The fragrance can also be slightly sweet and slightly medicinal, giving it a unique depth and complexity. The flacon of KHÔL DE BAHREÏN is designed to reflect the luxurious character of the fragrance.

The flacons often feature elaborate details and a sophisticated design that epitomises the essence of the perfume they contain. KHÔL DE BAHREÏN by STÉPHANE HUMBERT LUCAS is a versatile fragrance that can be worn both during the day and in the evening. It is ideal for special occasions, evening events or whenever you want to feel elegant and sophisticated.

KHÔL DE BAHREÏN perfume has excellent longevity and a strong sillage that ensures it leaves a lasting impression. STÉPHANE HUMBERT LUCAS is a niche perfume house known for its opulent and artistic fragrances. The brand often draws inspiration from different cultures and elements to create unique and high-quality perfumes that stand out in the world of luxury fragrances.

KHÔL DE BAHREÏN was created by STÉPHANE HUMBERT LUCAS himself, a perfumer known for his creative and artisanal compositions. The fragrance was inspired by the traditional use of cabbage (or khôl), a cosmetic powder used in the Arab world to emphasise and give depth to the eyes. This association gives the perfume a mysterious and seductive aura.

KHÔL DE BAHREÏN is part of the 777 collection by STÉPHANE HUMBERT LUCAS , which is known for its seven unique and sophisticated fragrances. Each perfume in this line tells its own story and offers an unrivalled olfactory experience. A blend of benzoin and amber, commonly used in perfumery, combines the rich, resinous warmth of amber with the sweet, balsamic notes of benzoin.

Here is a detailed overview of each component and how they work together in fragrances. Benzoin is a resin extracted from the bark of trees of the Styrax genus, which are mainly found in South East Asia. It is highly valued in perfumery for its sweet, warm and vanilla-like aroma. Benzoin is also known for its fixing properties, which help to stabilise and prolong the scent of other notes in KHÔL DE BAHREÏN.

Amber in perfumery refers to a blend of resins, oils and other ingredients developed to mimic the warm, sweet and slightly powdery aroma of natural ambergris, which is very rare and expensive. The term ‘amber’ often refers to an accord rather than a single ingredient. Amber is used as a base note and gives KHÔL DE BAHREÏN warmth, depth and a long-lasting presence.

Amber accords can be made with labdanum, benzoin, vanilla and other resins. Some amber fragrances may also contain synthetic components to achieve the desired fragrance profile. The blend of benzoin and amber in the KHÔL DE BAHREÏN fragrance by STÉPHANE HUMBERT LUCAS creates a warm, sweet and deeply resinous base that enhances the overall composition of a fragrance.

This blend is ideal for providing longevity, depth and a comforting, luxurious aroma in perfumes and is therefore a popular choice when creating oriental and gourmand fragrances. Top notes: nougat, resins, violet Heart notes: vegetable amber, iris, sandalwood Base notes: Peru balsam, musk
