Ard Al Zaafaran Shafaq is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2022. Shafaq opens with Almond and Tangerine, settles into a heart of Orchid and Coconut, and dries down to a base of Cedar, Heliotrope, and Vanilla. Ard Al Zaafaran's Shafaq carries a Favourite verdict, a sweet-led wear.

This is Yara's softer, creamier, more refined sister. Expect a sweet, comfortable scent that's a versatile easy-reach for daytime, though its intimate sillage means it won't scream for attention.

About

Shafaq opens with a bright spark of tangerine, quickly softened by a sweet almond embrace. This leads into a creamy heart of coconut and delicate orchid, a smooth, tropical hum that avoids sun-cream cliches. As it settles, a warm, powdery vanilla blends with heliotrope, underpinned by a subtle, grounding cedar. It's a fluffy, lotion-like gourmand that smells both innocent and addictive.
