The story
Thameen was founded in London in 2013 by Basel Binjabr. The house builds fragrance stories around precious jewels, cultural memory, and the tension between British form and Eastern opulence. The name Thameen means “precious” in Arabic.
The Treasure Collection is central to the range. Fragrances such as Peregrina, The Hope, and Carved Oud translate specific treasures into floral, spicy, and woody compositions. The Britologne Collection extends this language with a British cologne structure, higher concentration, and pronounced projection.
01 · Origin

A London house for precious stories

Thameen began in London in 2013 and was founded by Basel Binjabr. From the start, the house has connected perfume with the cultural meaning of jewellery. The brand describes its fragrances as contemporary extraits whose materials and stories echo the rarity of jewels.

02 · Jewels as a fragrance language

From the Hope Diamond to the lost Florentine treasure

In the Treasure Collection, historic and legendary jewels become olfactory starting points. Florentine Diamond draws on the story of a lost diamond of Indian origin and combines tuberose, cocoa, sugar cane, oud, and vanilla. The result is not a literal copy of a stone, but a composition about radiance, depth, and memory.

03 · Composition

British form, distinct voices

Thameen works with different perfumers and carries its narrative approach into distinct olfactory directions. Carved Oud draws on Indian rituals and South Indian oud. The Britologne Collection, by contrast, reimagines the classic cologne structure. Sophie Labbé is documented as Principal Perfumer for Florentine Diamond. Since 2022, Christopher Chong has shaped the house's creative development as Brand & Artistic Director.

10/10
Seductive, sensual gourmand with unique performance. Soft rose petals with powdered caramel. Not sugary, but highly elegant with Arabic-inspired nuances.

Great, slightly spicy-caramelly rose scent. Due to its heaviness, it's perfect for cool autumn evenings or winter and for going out or special occasions.

A beautiful sweet rose-caramel scent, at first it was too sweet and intense for me, but I just couldn't get away from it... I had to keep testing and wearing it and now I've completely fallen for it... a must-have in autumn and winter
