Aswan – Extrait de Parfum

Widian – niche perfumery from Abu Dhabi, with bottles shaped by Arabian architecture.

Aswan is fruity, sweet and softly leathery. Bergamot, pink pepper and raspberry open fresh and berry-bright, green violet leaves meet cedarwood and amber at the heart, before patchouli, vanilla, tobacco, musk and leather settle into a warm, velvety base. It is inspired by Aswan, the “Pearl of the Nile” in Upper Egypt.

Aswan can be worn all year round, day and night – a unisex scent for everyday wear, special occasions and as a warm, friendly signature scent.

What makes Aswan special to us: the way the raspberry blooms between violet and leather. It is sweet but never sugary – the violet leaves add something green and cool, the leather a sense of adventure. A journey down the Nile, bottled.
