FAQs

Zarbafti is a Pakistani perfume brand with three scents inspired by the arc of a day: Sahar (morning), Ufaq (afternoon), and Shaam (evening). Each full-size bottle is 50 ml.

Sahar (The Morning): Crisp, fruity-woody, and awakening — featuring notes of Bergamot, Royal Pineapple, Birch, and Clean Musk.

Ufaq (The Afternoon): Warm, spicy, and commanding — blending Blood Mandarin, Cinnamon, Blonde Leather, and Rich Amber.

Shaam (The Evening): Deep, sweet, and intoxicating — an opulent gourmand trail of Cinnamon Bark, Sweet Dates, Praline, Dark Vanilla, and Amberwood.

Every Zarbafti fragrance is formulated as a high-concentration Eau de Parfum (20%+ perfume oil) engineered for the Pakistani climate. On average, our scents deliver 8 to 10+ hours of longevity on skin and 24+ hours on fabric, though exact performance naturally varies with skin chemistry, weather, and application. For maximum projection, let your bottle rest 24 hours after courier delivery, apply 3–5 sprays to moisturised pulse points and collar fabric, and never rub your wrists together.

Our entire collection is crafted to be versatile and unisex-leaning, designed around moments of the day rather than strict rules. Sahar offers a crisp, commanding freshness; Ufaq projects warm, spicy executive confidence; and Shaam delivers a rich, sweet-spicy evening allure loved equally by men and women.

Yes! Because Sahar, Ufaq, and Shaam share complementary base structures, you can layer them on your skin to create up to 7 unique scent combinations — such as pairing 2 sprays of Sahar with 1 spray of Ufaq for a crisp, woody afternoon transition.

The Discovery Set includes testers of Sahar, Ufaq, and Shaam so you can explore all three before choosing a full bottle — ideal if you are new to the house or buying a gift thoughtfully. Together with our 15% first-order welcome privilege for new subscribers, it is the risk-free way to discover a scent before a full 50 ml bottle.

The Trilogy is all three full-size 50 ml bottles — Sahar, Ufaq, and Shaam — presented together in a gift-ready box. Shipping on the Trilogy Bundle is free nationwide within Pakistan.

High-concentration fragrances can experience “Travel Shock” from heat and motion in transit. Please let your bottle rest upright in a cool, dark place for 24 to 48 hours after delivery before the first spray so the oils settle to their true depth and longevity. See the Travel Shock note on our Returns & Refund Policy.

For hygiene reasons, opened or used perfume is not returnable unless it is damaged, defective, or the wrong item. Unopened sealed items may be returned within 7 days of delivery. Before opening a full bottle, try our Discovery Set and — when available — the 15% first-order welcome privilege for new subscribers. Full details are on our Returns & Refund Policy.

Keep bottles upright in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat (for example, not on a sunny windowsill or in a hot car). Replace the cap firmly after use. After courier delivery, allow 24–48 hours of rest before first spray (Travel Shock).
