Arabesque takes you on a journey through the enchanting and mystical Middle East by way of flowers, fruits and woods entwined together. Inspired by the most beautifully carved arabesque's of Islamic art. A heart of rose and jasmine absolute dance together to create a sense of well-being and serenity while patchouli and oud transports you to another world.

All about this fragrance

Vibe check

As the pace slows after sunset, Arabesque brings a deliberate richness to the room: dark fruit and saffron above a substantial rose-and-oud foundation. Its register is unhurried and tactile, suited to close conversation where the fragrance remains a noticeable part of your presence.

How to wear

Cool weather gives the rich floral-oud composition room to unfold. Start with one or two sprays on skin beneath clothing for a more contained effect; exposed wrists or neck will make its presence more apparent. In warm weather or close indoor spaces, apply sparingly.

Who it’s for

For those drawn to full-bodied rose and oud, saffron warmth and dark, textured woods. Arabesque will appeal more to lovers of enveloping, leathery compositions than to those seeking sheer florals or restrained citrus scents.

2023

Collaborators

Linda Pilkington shaped Arabesque’s creative direction, bringing together its art-inspired name, Middle Eastern imagery and place within Four Corners of the Earth. In a launch-period interview, she described collaborating with fragrance house Expressions Parfumées on its development.

Ormonde Jayne’s story

Ormonde Jayne combines British craftsmanship with a travel-led curiosity for unusual ingredients. Its London identity embraces cultural diversity, while its fragrances translate places and discoveries into carefully structured compositions rather than literal souvenirs.

Arabesque’s concept

Pilkington wrote the name Arabesque in her notebook long before developing the fragrance, drawn to its associations with Islamic ornament and graceful dance. It found its home in Four Corners of the Earth, where interwoven flowers, fruits and woods express a Middle Eastern inspiration, enriched by her fascination with ancient souks.

Extra info

Arabesque belongs to Four Corners of the Earth, rather than the house’s Silk Road-inspired La Route de la Soie collection. Its official 88 ml presentation pairs a blue-gradient bottle with a silver-colored cap.
