Hindu Kush

Hindu Kush is the perfume that unites both the sacred and the profane. The aromas of incenses and perfumed woods are woven together with those of the sensual and appetizing fragrances of oriental spices. Hindu Kush is the fusion of the archetypal smells which, in the unconscious mind of man, symbolize life’s pleasures (culinary spices) and inward research (incense and aromatic woods).  Continue …

Description

The chain of mountains of the Hindu Kush is the natural boundary of ancient India with Persia and Central Asia. It is from here that the sacred river Indus comes down from the highest valleys with unbridled force.

It’s a rough and wild land difficult to get to and populated by fierce warriors who challenge every day the intrusion of progress. This is a land the time forgot where neither people nor landscapes are contaminated by technology. Here travelers can fall in love with the air that they breathe and with the state of mind that overcomes someone until they become part of the mountain and part of the people changing clothes, habits, and religion.

The unforgettable fragrance of the Hindu Kush is made of the aroma of its forests, of its wood fires, and the smells of the bazaars overflowing with oriental spices and things to eat.

Hindu Kush is the perfume that unites both the sacred and the profane. The aromas of incenses and perfumed woods are woven together with those of the sensual and appetizing fragrances of oriental spices. Hindu Kush is the fusion of the archetypal smells which, in the unconscious mind of man, symbolize life’s pleasures (culinary spices) and inward research (incense and aromatic woods).

Close your eyes and breathe in, Hindu Kush is like taking a walk in an Indian market, where clouds of incense smoke escape through the open doors of temples to be mixed with the perfumes of the east, ginger, cumin, nutmeg, and pepper.

Take a step inside and all is peace, silence, and meditation, take a step outside and you find the crowd rushing here and there, noises and confusion.

For these reasons Hindu Kush is a perfume for people who feel attracted by eastern mystics, in which the sacred and the profane become confused in the everyday life, and for many people simply to smell it is an emotional experience because it generates the state of mind they are inwardly looking for.

Hindu Kush is not loved by everybody, this should teach us to be humble and make us reflect that harmony between physical and inner realities is not an aim in itself but is merely a mean to reach a much higher goal.

  1. Rated 5 out of 5

    Blackincense – July 29, 2015

    My friends Veejay and his wife, Nirmala bought some of this in Italy for me as a gift. They wanted to know what I thought of it, and I decided to share those thoughts here.

    First, the clarity of the elixir is interesting — there is no cloud, and the consistency of the oil is topnotch. On opening the bottle, my first impressions were:

    Real Bombay sandalwood – the real deal!

    Silk sliding over cotton and getting caught on wood.

    Calcutta merchants crying out to sell spice

    The basenotes of this perfume is oak moss, real sandalwood, and a hint of pepper. Overtones being what they are, I would classify it as green, but without being another boring citrus. This is an exciting perfume and it captures an image of the Indian orient. The surprise in this perfume is the nutmeg — not too overpowering, but very much present and it’s almost a sustaining force in the elixir.

    This is a very resinous perfume, incense based, and I am glad to see it and grateful for the opportunity to have it. My friends are too kind to give me such a gift!

    A very fun perfume, this scent is an adventure in forest filled mountains with a lot of soul searching. I hope for more like this in coming years. This one is a true ‘eastern perfume’, for men or women. But I suspect that very “professional” women might find it too heavy for daily wear. This is a very exotic and eastern oil.

  2. Rated 5 out of 5

    Mike P. – July 29, 2015

    Fantasitc woody, mossy, green, spiced mix that is never heavy but rather airy and ethereal.
    Prominent in the mix are a green grass/hemp note and a note of fresh cut conifer lumber.
    In the background are Indian spices – I pick up saffron, cardamom, nutmeg, black pepper, a hint of caraway – oak moss, and transparent frankinscense.
    Truly a scent for the soul.
