The young adolescent girl of the Caucasus is admitted to the Topkapi harem. In those days the Turks had an insatiable passion for tulips. She is named Furuzende, or the one who gives light, after the flower of the same name. Her beauty becomes legendary, despite the thick walls of the Imperial Palace. She learns to dance, to sing, as well as poetry and music. One day the Imperial Mother notices her and she becomes one of her maids in waiting. Pleasure and games are numerous at the harem. Day after day the most adored women receive fine jewelry and dresses only to be worn once. Beauty is an art, happiness a happenstance. Smoking is also an art at the harem. Patience and agility trials are organized. The winers are the girls who are able to shape the most impressive smoke curls, to the delight of the onlookers who detect the evocation of their destiny. These exquisite fragrances are available to order by phone - 800-377-8771 (M-F 8-5 pst) or please email us at info@beautyhabit.com. We look forward to hearing from you!
