Golconda & Bijapur

Bijapur

Built by the Chalukya kings in the 11th century and conquered and ruled by the Bahmani kings in Deccan India (now Karnataka), the Bijapur kingdom represents a culture equally shaped by Hindu and Muslim confluences. A floral gourmand built around spice, smoke, flowers and wood, Bijapur is a noble scent that exudes bravery and wisdom.

Golconda

Built by the Kakatiya kings in the 11th century and ruled for centuries by the Bahmani kings in Deccan India (now Telangana), the Golkonda empire and the culture it spawned reflects a fusion of Persian and native Indian influences. Woven around hues of sandalwood and amber, and dressed in the beauty of rose and patchouli, Golkonda is a sparkling olfactory eastern jewel that shimmers with radiance and beauty.
