Heavendüft

Heavendüft was launched in 2020 by Tausif Iqbal Shaikh, an Indian independent perfumer drawn to the craft from an early age through the attars and perfumes that marked celebrations in his family. Shaikh formulates every fragrance himself, placing emphasis on high volumes of rare natural materials balanced with a selective use of quality aroma chemicals — an approach that produces fragrances with the richness of traditional Indian artisanship alongside the clarity of contemporary construction. The house specializes in premium perfumes, agarwood and sandalwood oils, pure artisan attars, and designer-influenced compositions, giving the catalog a range that runs from deeply traditional to accessible-niche. Tobacco, vanilla, musk, and oud constructions feature prominently, and several early releases became well-regarded within India's online fragrance community. Heavendüft operates primarily through direct-to-consumer channels, building a direct relationship with buyers who value the maker's involvement at every step. It represents a newer wave of Indian fragrance makers treating domestic artisanship as a foundation rather than an inspiration to import.
