Rimala

Where sands become scent

Scroll

01 — The house

Nineteen names
from one desert.

Every Rimala carries an Arabic name for something the desert does — the midday heat, the mirage, the trace a walker leaves. Each is a 55 ml extrait de parfum, blended and filled in the UAE by Al Jaaf, a perfume house since 2008.

03 — The bottle

Gold foil, kraft board,
and nothing wasted.

  • The flacon

    55 ml extrait

    The highest oil load we make. A heavy flat-shouldered flacon, a black lacquer cap, and the scent’s own desert printed on the label in gold foil.

  • The name

    Arabic first

    Each name is set in gold calligraphy over the landscape it describes, with the Latin transliteration beneath it. The name is the brief.

  • The carton

    Uncoated kraft

    Boxes are uncoated kraft board with a blind-deboss dune pattern — no lamination, no foil blocking on the carton, recyclable as it is.

  • The fill

    Blended in the UAE

    Compounded, left to macerate and filled here by Al Jaaf, a perfume house working out of the Emirates since 2008.
