Kismet Olfactive - Tuberose Tantra - niche perfume
An erotic floral fragrance inspired by Eastern sex magic practices, Tuberose Tantra is energized by the ritual of building slowly rather than rushing to the climax. Infused with layers of ancient aphrodisiac oils, its base is composed of a strong bed of sandalwood, its heart contains a plentiful dose of narcotic tuberose, and its top notes burst with spicy ginger. Note: arousal may occur while wearing this fragrance.

Kismet Olfactive is a New York City-based independent fragrance studio founded by bohemian-perfumer Shabnam Tavakol. Born and raised in California, Shabnam—Farsi for “morning dew”—is the daughter of Iranian-immigrant parents who escaped the violent 1979 Revolution in Iran, relocating to the U.S. by way of hard-won efforts and a string of good fortune. Recognizing this fortuitous past, Kismet—from the Persian qismat, meaning “fate,” or, “what is meant to be”—translates the serendipitous moments that make up our lives into wearable scents.
WE STORYTELL THROUGH SCENT
Kismet bridges Persian heritage and Western upbringing through a range of influences that overlap and transcend both worlds: 1960s revolutionaries in music, film, and fashion, experimental storytelling, psychedelia, nostalgia, poetry, human connection, theories of time, morning hours, sensuality, synesthesia, moodiness, eastern philosophies, free spirits, and a general revolt against the establishment at large.
Likewise, Shabnam looks to olfactive genealogy and its cycles, as well as the interconnections between ancient Eastern scent practices, classic French perfume style, and contemporary trends, to help define Kismet’s offering of bold, unisex fragrances. Kismet represents custom small-batch formulation, hand-selecting only the finest oils and ethically sustainable raw materials in its dedication to artful olfactive storytelling.
Shabnam Tavakol studied fragrance creation at the Grasse Institute of Perfumery in South France. After graduating, she worked professionally with large-scale fragrance houses and master perfumers in Paris and New York City before founding Kismet Olfactive.
