AGAR AURA & SOLAFA SCENTS

Agar Aura pride themselves to be one of the few companies that do.

Solafa Scents is a branch of Agar Aura, and a brainchild of Agar Aura's distiller-cum-perfumer, Taha Syed.

Being hyper-sensitive to the majority of mainstream fragrances, Taha completely shunned them altogether for over a decade. However, being exposed to some high end perfumes produced by leading French perfumers that intelligently utilize both natural and high quality synthetic ingredients, he was very impressed. Inspired, he took an unexpected detour.

Solafa Scents perfumes are composed using natural and synthetic ingredients, a variety of mixed media including oils, resins, gums, crystals, isolates, and tinctures.

If the bulk of fragrances have been your bane, Solafa Scents will be your boon.

By sourcing truly rare and superior all natural materials, the artisans behind this house are driven by nothing but sheer fascination and obsession with producing the finest of distillations ever.  All done by hand, from start to end. 

The story began upon Russian Adams first ever exposure to the most prized scent - oud. An aroma which Adam found to be, in his words, “disgusting”. With a conflict between initial perception and the experience, Adam felt compelled to try oud, again and again. The fascination gradually turning into an addiction for ouds immensely complex scent profile.

Adam's journey of exploring the world of oud led to him to studying and collecting various custom made oud oils crafted from high grade materials. The search  eventually turned into an expedition to find what Adam viewed as the 'perfect' aroma.

With the objective feeling almost unaccomplished despite exhaustive research, Adam was finally decided to embark on the ultimate journey - to distil oud himself. Residing in the UK, he decided to shift to Thailand to pursue this dream. Where he came across a fellow Russian and oud lover, Ali (popularly known as Dimitry Bortnikoff, the to be owner of 'Bortnikoff'). A union that eventually led to co-founding Feel Oud.    

Through deploying meticulous and intricate distillation techniques with hands-on involvement throughout the making, Feel Oud have since created an outstanding range of oud oil of varying grades. Each yield resonating the quality and rarity of the agarwood used. Their offerings to date include one of the highest quality of agarwood oil (oud) ever produced.
