ABOUT US
Ancient Craftsmanship. Modern Parfum
Our Fragrance House
House of Herbs Parfums is a fragrance house dedicated exclusively to creating rich, refined and memorable parfum concentrations.
Our fragrances are produced in our own facility, where the artistry of traditional Indian perfumery meets the precision of modern fragrance creation. We draw inspiration from the centuries-old Deg-Bhapka method, a slow and patient process once used by master perfumers to capture the true aromatic character of flowers, herbs, woods, roots, spices and other botanicals.
The Deg-Bhapka Tradition
In this traditional method, carefully selected plant materials are placed with water inside a copper vessel called the deg. The vessel is sealed and gently heated, allowing fragrant vapours to rise slowly rather than being forced by extreme temperatures. These vapours travel through a bamboo pipe into the bhapka, a receiving vessel kept cool in water so that the aromatic steam can condense and reveal its precious fragrance.
It is a process guided by patience, experience, temperature, timing, and the perfumer’s senses.
“Nothing is hurried.”
Honouring Ancient Craftsmanship
At House of Herbs Parfums, we honour the spirit of this ancient craftsmanship while adapting it to our modern fragrance-making process. Natural aromatic materials including essential oils, botanical extracts, woods, resins, roots, flowers and spices are carefully selected for the depth and personality they bring to each composition.
These materials are thoughtfully combined with quality perfumery ingredients to improve balance, diffusion, stability and lasting performance. Each formula is then blended and allowed to rest, giving the individual notes time to soften, connect and develop into one harmonious scent.
Maturation and Refinement
Throughout maturation, the fragrance is evaluated to ensure that its opening, heart and base unfold beautifully. Once it has reached the desired character, it is carefully prepared, filtered and bottled within our facility.
Parfum, by Design
We specialize in Parfum concentration only, rather than lighter fragrance formats. This allows us to create scents with greater richness, depth, presence, and a more enduring impression on the skin.
Every House of Herbs Parfums represents a meeting of two worlds: the patience and soul of ancient botanical perfumery and the elegance and performance of modern luxury fragrance.
