Fragrance house

Designer Shaik

Designer Shaik is a Bahrain-based luxury brand founded by Mohamed Al Asfoor. Its fragrance was launched in 2001 after development began in 1993, while the company’s founding is dated to 2002. The house grew from fragrance into a broader luxury-goods identity encompassing timepieces, fashion accessories, and other designed objects. Its concept is built around Shaik, an imagined Arabian desert prince whose character became the basis for the logo and wider brand world. Arabian heritage and desert imagery are combined with Western design and presentation, giving the house its East-meets-West identity. As the company developed internationally, it pursued intellectual-property protection for its name, logo, bottle, product designs, and a watch-strap patent. The Opulent collection is its clearest defining fragrance family, including Opulent Shaik Sapphire No.33 for women and No.77 for men, described as a bestselling, award-winning collection.
