Ataratma Shakti Saffron is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2025, created by Nelly Hachem-Ruiz. Shakti Saffron opens with Cardamom, Frankincense, and Cherry, settles into a heart of Cypriol Oil or Nagarmotha, Cistus Incanus, and Saffron, and dries down to a base of Patchouli, Labdanum, and Moss. Ataratma's Shakti Saffron carries an Acquired verdict, a musk-led wear.

Saffron, cardamom and resinous cherry lead this dense, spicy fragrance into an earthy moss and labdanum base. The small wearer sample is divided: some praise its rich, polished character, while another finds it poor value.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

Fall and winter lead the small local season poll, but the official page also presents it for summer. Keep the cooler-weather lean provisional.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Night is ahead of day in the small time-of-day poll, and one wearer reports strong early projection. Date and formal scores are cautious fits; office and sport remain low without direct supporting use reports.

About

Shakti Saffron is a 2025 Unisex Extrait by Ataratma, composed by Nelly Hachem-Ruiz. The current official 50ml page labels it Extrait de Parfum at 25% and lists the bottle for £235, which places it in the Luxury price band. Its published pyramid opens with olibanum, cardamom and cherry, moves to cistus, cypriol and saffron, then settles into patchouli, labdanum and moss. The current product page and the local Fragrantica record agree on the phases and main materials. Two Fragrantica comments give sharply different reactions. One wearer describes smoky olibanum, resinous cherry and a honeyed saffron heart, with patchouli, labdanum and moss underneath. That reviewer reports more than ten hours of wear and strong projection for the first few hours, followed by a closer trail. The other commenter compares it unfavourably with other saffron fragrances and says it is not worth the price. A Parfumo statement independently picks out saffron and olibanum with cardamom and a liqueur-like cherry. These three short accounts support the main scent direction, but they are too few to establish a broad consensus. The local Fragrantica snapshot also contains small performance and season polls. Longevity responses range from weak to eternal, while sillage responses range from moderate to enormous. Fall and winter lead the seasonal selections, and night leads the time-of-day votes. These counts support a tentative cool-weather and evening lean, not a fixed rule. The long-wear report is one person's experience, so the profile does not promise a duration or projection distance. Shakti Saffron is best described as a warm, spicy and fruity saffron scent with an earthy, resinous finish and divided value opinions.
