Junoon

Junoon, released by the Indian brand Sasva in 2022 and composed by Hamid Merati-Kashani, is described equally as gourmand, woody, floral and aromatic, with smaller spicy and resinous touches.

The name means passion or obsession in Hindi and Urdu. Saffron opens it with a warm, leathery and honeyed spice, while lavender and sage bring a clean, aromatic herbal freshness. In the heart, rose gives a velvety petal note and tuberose a creamy, heady richness. The base is deep and warm: agarwood, or oud, adds a smoky, resinous woodiness, labdanum a sticky, ambery resin, patchouli an earthy depth, and vanilla and tonka bean a creamy, almond-like sweetness.

The profile suggests autumn and winter, evenings and formal or festive occasions. It is meant to be worn by anyone who enjoys saffron, rose and oud softened by vanilla and lavender, a combination that feels both rich and fresh. Its aromatic side gives it a more versatile character than many dark oud scents.
