05 (Ludlow) Lull Eau De Parfum

The city below was a constant hum of horns and footsteps, but up here, on Harold’s Manhattan balcony, time seemed to slow. He stepped onto the warm wooden deck, a record spinning on his vintage turntable. Haydn’s gentle strings filled the air, threading through the high-rise canyons like a ribbon of calm.

The first scent that touched him was orange blossom, bright and luminous, mingling with the faint, comforting bitterness of black tea in a porcelain cup. The fragrances wrapped around him, softening the steel-and-glass edges of the city.

Harold’s eyes traced the geometry of his balcony garden, each planter a carefully chosen shape, each plant deliberately placed. Dwarf red apple and cherry trees bore tiny fruits, their sweet aroma drifting like a memory. Climbing roses twisted around the trellis, petals unfurling in slow-motion grace, their perfume rising in sync with Haydn’s violins.

As evening fell, golden light touched the city skyline, and the base notes of his sanctuary emerged. Sandal wood planters radiated warmth, cashmere wood furniture exuded a soft, tactile comfort, and a whisper of white musk floated from a candle flickering in the corner. The scents blended with the music, the city’s distant roar softened to a muted backdrop, and Harold closed his eyes.

He could feel the architecture of his life, the precision of his designs, the rhythm of the music, the choreography of scents, all converging in this small, suspended world. Every current was a composition, every glance a frame. In that moment, the city, the garden, and Harold himself became one living, breathing work of art.

Gabar is built on the very belief that much of the change we want to see in the world can come from ourselves first. From living more consciously, to being more present and attune with our feelings, to fully expressing exploring the various, dynamic selves in us, Gabar's mission is to encourage ideas of self-expansion, self-awareness self-discovery through scent and everyday rituals.

At Gabar, we clash old world values with fresh, contemporary aesthetics to build a scent brand for the future. One that cares just as much about internal over external beauty, and that is fully committed to slowly undoing unconscious values that no longer serve us. Gabar (meaning "world" in the Myanmar language, our mother tongue) is both a brand and movement.

A London brand, rooted in Southeast Asia but made for the world.

While our roots are in Myanmar (Southeast Asia) and we call London our current home, our mindset and inspiration will always remain global. We love the idea of bringing together our Buddhist heritage and deep diverse cultural experiences to create a brand unlike any other -- one with a globalist spirit that can resonate with those in different corners of the world.

Our philosophy will always remain: to do least harm. From box to bottle, every Gabar product is 98% recyclable, using cork, wood, glass, or paper in place of plastic and other non-recyclables. The result is a natural one -- and may result in a beautifully bent or out of shape package. We appreciate your partnership, as our practice for a sustainable future is ever-evolving and constantly in motion. And of course, we are vegan-friendly and never test on animals.
