Among Homarouge’s extraordinary perfumes, Afaaq – The Pearl Horizons stands out as a
mesmerizing olfactory masterpiece. It captures the essence of Islam’s emergence as a vibrant
green bunch of grass amid the vast deserts—a symbol of rejuvenation, fragrant allure, and
luminosity.
As you embark on a sensory journey with Afaaq, the fragrance unfolds like a story of resilience,
growth, and beauty rising from barren lands. The opening notes bring forth the invigorating
freshness of dew-kissed green grass, reminiscent of a resilient shoot breaking through the
desert’s surface. It is a testament to the strength and determination that lies within.
The heart of Afaaq blooms with a floral symphony, echoing the blossoming of faith and
enlightenment. Pearl-like white florals dance gracefully, enveloping the senses in a soft but sure
embrace. The sweet aroma of Jasmin Sambac, French Tuberose, and champaca intertwines
with the earthy depth of vetiver, creating a harmonious blend that mirrors the emergence of
Islam—bright, fragrant, and alluring.
As the fragrance reaches its base notes, it anchors itself with the grounding warmth of vetiver
and aged sweet Cambodian oud. These ingredients symbolize the enduring strength and vitality
of Islam, reminding us of the rich heritage and traditions that have withstood the test of time.
The highlighted ingredients in Afaaq showcase the meticulous craftsmanship behind its
creation. The vetiver sourced from different regions of the world adds layers of freshness and
rejuvenation. Vetiver Haiti exhibits a brighter, fresher quality, while Vetiver Choco, aged for
nine years, offers a calming yet stimulating experience. Vetiver Absolute from India surpasses
typical vetiver essential oils in depth and earthiness. Lastly, Vetiver SP showcases the
captivating and ever-changing characteristics of this complex natural material.
Jasmin Sambac and Tuberose Absolute bring forth their captivating floral notes, adding
opulence and elegance to the fragrance. These white florals harmonize seamlessly, creating a
symphony of sweet, creamy, and oriental accents that evoke joy, peace, and harmony.
To replace the opulent Deer musk and stay true to the essence of Arabia, Afaaq incorporates
the musk of wool. Derived from the wool of freely grazing sheep, this wool musk absolute
carries a clean barnyard animalic character with subtle smoky and leathery undertones. It not
only enhances the perfume composition but also reflects the brand’s commitment to
sustainability and ethical practices.
The inclusion of aged oud Cambodian oil adds the final touch of allure to Afaaq. With its robust
wood tones, smoky facets, and subtle fruity essence, it creates a captivating aura that persists
throughout the fragrance journey.
Afaaq – The Pearl Horizons is more than just a perfume. It is a sensory expression of resilience,
growth, and the enduring spirit of Islam. With its carefully selected ingredients and masterful
craftsmanship, Homarouge has created a fragrance that embodies the brand’s vision and
captures the essence of Islamic history in every spritz.
When you wear Afaaq, you carry with you a piece of the vibrant green grass emerging from the
desert—a symbol of beauty, rejuvenation, and the power of faith. Let Afaaq transport you to
the pearl horizons, where the fragrance of resilience lingers in the air, reminding us of our own
potential for growth and strength.
