Safran by Headspace is a fragrance of quiet intensity: the warm red glow of saffron balanced by a deep, smoky undertone.
It opens with a smoky, vibrant prelude of lapsang souchong black tea headspace, green galbanum, cardamom, and a touch of dry pepper. The heart reveals warm, mineral saffron, softened by bitter maté, resinous frankincense, and a hint of powdery iris. In the base, tanned leather, fruity osmanthus, and earthy patchouli build a layered, textural warmth that lingers on the skin.
Safran is a leathery, woody saffron fragrance that glows with dry tension and golden warmth — intense, yet refined.

Leather
Discover the multiple facets of leather in perfumes. Think of the smell of a leather jacket, a pair of suede shoes, the inside of a leather bag, or an old Chesterfield… Leather gives a luxurious, seductive and elegant touch to the fragrance. But it is also dark, robust and slightly animalic which makes this smell mysteriously tantalizing.
