About Us
Our story begins in the blessed city of Madinah Al Munawwarah, a place of profound spiritual significance and a wellspring of inspiration. It is here, amidst the tranquility and rich heritage of this sacred city, that we embarked on a journey to capture the essence of Arabian perfumery in the form of exquisite attars. We believe that fragrance is more than just a scent; it is a story, a memory, a connection to our past, and a powerful tool for spiritual reflection.
Our passion is rooted in the time-honored traditions of Arabian attar making, a meticulous art form passed down through generations. Unlike modern perfumes that often rely on synthetic chemicals, we are committed to using only the finest natural ingredients, sourced responsibly from around the globe. Each ingredient is carefully selected for its unique aromatic properties and its contribution to the overall fragrance, reflecting our deep respect for the natural world.
Two of our signature attars embody this commitment to tradition and spiritual connection: Roza E Aqdas and Kiswa E Kabba. Roza E Aqdas, inspired by the serene atmosphere of the Prophet’s Mosque in Madinah, seeks to capture the essence of tranquility and devotion. Attar making has deep roots in Islamic culture, with fragrant oils playing a significant role in religious practices and daily life for centuries. Roza E Aqdas draws upon this rich history, blending ancient perfumery techniques with modern artistry to evoke a sense of peace, reflection, and spiritual upliftment, mirroring the serene atmosphere of the Prophet’s Mosque. The name itself, likely referencing the holiest of roses, further emphasizes the themes of purity and divine beauty.
Kiswa E Kabba, on the other hand, finds its inspiration in the Kiswa, the sacred black cloth that adorns the Kaaba in Makkah. The Kaaba holds immense religious significance for Muslims worldwide, and the Kiswa is a powerful symbol of unity and devotion. The use of fragrance in Islamic rituals and practices has a long and rich history, and Kiswa E Kabba draws upon this tradition, seeking to evoke the sacred atmosphere surrounding the Kaaba. The attar aims to inspire a sense of awe, reverence, and connection to the divine, mirroring the profound feelings experienced by pilgrims who visit this holy site. The name “Kiswa E Kabba” directly connects the fragrance to this powerful symbol, underscoring its spiritual significance.
At Makeen e Madinah, each bottle of attar is a testament to our dedication to quality, craftsmanship, and the rich heritage of Arabian perfumery. We believe that fragrance is a gift, and we are honored to share our creations with those who appreciate the artistry and spiritual depth of these timeless scents. We strive to create fragrances that not only smell beautiful but also inspire a sense of peace, reflection, and connection to something greater than ourselves.
