Vulture Prince Perfume Oil

from Arooj Aftab

This perfume oil is an olfactory accompaniment to Vulture Prince, created by Dana El Masri. Clary sage captures the cylindrical cloud that weaves through each song and the soothing nature of Arooj’s vocals—embodying ideas about holding space and repetitive sound shapes. Wet earth, ripe stone fruit and a faint smokiness tell a story about the color purple and all its beautiful scents amplified by monsoon season.

Ingredients: Clary Sage, Labdanum, Stone Fruit, Wet Earth, Nagarmotha, Vetiver, Ginger, Bergamot, in fractionated coconut oil.

Caution -- This oil is for external use only. Do not use if allergic to coconut. Place in cool, dry place and never put oil on skin and go into direct sunlight.

Size -- 5ml/0.17fl oz

Dana El Masri is a perfume and interdisciplinary artist with a musical background and experience in a lot of cross-modal practices. Dana listened to Vulture Prince in its entirety, made notes, and felt out which sounds corresponded to scents. During the process, Dana asked Arooj for colours, shapes, feelings and memories. She interpreted all of this into scent with the hope that this album and its scent brings people closer to Arooj and her message.
