Oum-el Fahem, The Resilient, draws from Palestine’s long-standing relationship with almond cultivation.
Known for its soft shell and rich flavour, the Oum-el Fahem almond has grown across generations, thriving in dry, rocky landscapes. A quiet symbol of resilience, shaped by both land and time.

The scent opens with soft notes of peach, gently sweet and lifted with a touch of cardamom. As the candle burns, almond begins to emerge, adding a creamy depth that feels both comforting and familiar.

At full melt, the base settles into warm notes of leather, saffron, and musk, grounding the fragrance in a subtle, lingering warmth.

Balanced and enveloping, Oum-el Fahem is a scent that brings together softness and strength, unfolding slowly in your space.
