The Story

A Fragrance Born from Elegance

In Persian legend, Rustam wasn't just a hero—he was a force of nature. Seven trials. Countless battles. Undefeated. Not because he was the strongest, but because he refused to break. This fragrance opens like Rustam entering the battlefield—crisp Italian grapefruit and yuzu that cut through everything, impossible to ignore. The heart is where the legend begins: Indian ginger and pink pepper, spiced and alive, the scent of someone who's already proven themselves a thousand times. And the base? Cedarwood and vetiver, grounded and unstoppable, the kind of presence that lingers long after you've left the room. Rustam is built for men who don't need to announce themselves. The grapefruit says "I'm here." The ginger says "I'm staying." And the cedarwood? That says "Try to forget me." Fresh fragrances fade by noon. Rustam doesn't. Enriched with 10% natural essential oils, this is a fragrance that lasts as long as the legend itself. 10-12 hours of unstoppable projection. Because if you're going to wear a fragrance named after a Persian hero, it better perform like one. Wear Rustam when you need to be remembered. When good enough isn't enough. When you're not just showing up—you're making a statement.

Performance

Longevity

10-12 hours

Opens with an explosive burst of citrus that lasts 2-3 hours before transitioning into the spicy ginger heart. The woody base emerges around hour 4 and lasts well into 10-12 hours, with the cedarwood becoming more prominent. Exceptional longevity on clothing—noticeable well into the next day.

Sillage & Projection

Strong

This is a statement fragrance. Strong room-filling projection in the first few hours—people will notice you entering a room. After hour 4, it settles to a strong personal bubble. Never disappears completely, maintaining presence throughout the day.

Versatility

Incredibly versatile despite its boldness. The citrus opening makes it office-appropriate, while the woody dry-down transitions beautifully to evening wear. Performs exceptionally in warm weather due to the fresh opening, but the woody base makes it suitable year-round.

Expert Tips

How to Wear

Application

4-5 sprays for maximum impact: one on each wrist, one on neck, one on chest, and one on the back of the neck. For more subtle wear, 2-3 sprays on pulse points. Apply to clothing for extended longevity. The grapefruit and yuzu are volatile, so avoid over-application—let the fragrance develop naturally.

Layering

Best worn alone to appreciate its full complexity. If layering, pair with unscented moisturizer or light citrus body products. Avoid layering with other fragrances—Apex is a complete composition designed to stand alone.

Storage

Store in a cool, dark place away from heat and sunlight. The citrus notes are photosensitive and benefit from box storage. Keep away from bathrooms—humidity can affect the ginger and spice notes. Ideal storage temperature: 15-20°C.
