Radiant and airy. It fills a room, then settles into a soft resinous haze that stays close for the evening.

Chapter I of L'Arbre de Vie · The Crown

Citrus · Ethereal · Musk

Every tree begins as something invisible: an intention. Hayal, meaning dream in Turkish, was the first fragrance of this house, and it sits at the highest point of the tree, where the branches thin into open sky. A bright burst of lemon and blood orange lifts into black tea, neroli, and jasmine, then settles over a soft resinous haze of frankincense, labdanum, and cistus, held close by guaiacwood and musk. It fills a room the way a dream fills sleep: weightless, radiant, impossible to ignore. People will ask what you are wearing. The hallway you walked through will have already told them. This is the crown, the part of the tree that reaches.

Inspired by Light

Light is the first thing to arrive.

Before you know what a day will hold, the light has already told you it exists. It wakes ambition. Hayal means dream in Turkish, my first fragrance and my own first light, so it sits at the crown of the tree. I built it the way light behaves: lemon and blood orange arrive fastest and brightest, neroli, black tea and jasmine glow rather than glare, and frankincense settles with amberwood and white musk into a haze that stays lit after the citrus has gone.
