Based in Kuwait, and founded by Sheik Majed Al-Sabah, The Fragrance Kitchen combines the tradition of Middle Eastern perfumery with the French expertise of Grasse - perfume capital of the world - where scents are created under the meticulous guidance of top perfumers. Velvet Aura is a luxurious, androgynous scent featuring top notes of cardamom and black pepper. While in the heart, galbanum, cedar and jasmine take over the concoction, before spiralling into an indulgent base of Oud, amber and musk.
