Futuh Al-Habash solid cologne is a Frankincense Ferriana, Vanilla and Tonka bean-based cologne. Frankincense Ferriana is native to Somalia. It is referred to the "King of Frankincense" and is a huge part of Somalian pride. This cologne has a smokey rich exotic sweet vanilla fragrance with the uplifting spice of the Frankincense Ferriana, it is a highly loved fragrance blend.
The name of this cologne refers to the Futuh Al-Habash ( Conquest of Abyssinia), a historical battle between the Adel Sultanate (Pre-Somalia) and Christian Abyssinians (Pre-Ethiopia) led by Ahmad ibn Ibrahim al-Ghazi the Imam of Adal empire. This battle took place from 1529-1543. This was the battle that lead to the spread of Islam into Ethiopia. The flag of the Adel sultanate is featured on the label of this cologne. An interesting fact is Frankincense Ferriana is also an invasive species in Ethiopia and does not naturally grow there, thus we chose to name this product after the historical battle that lead to the spread of Islam into Ethiopia.
This solid cologne is made with a Jojoba wax base and is vegan friendly, Alcohol-free and non-pore clogging. You only need a little at a time and it is long-lasting because it is concentrated. Comes in a small pocket-sized 14ml tin, you can slip it in your pocket and touch it up at any time.
To apply: Gently rub the cream in a circular motion with your fingertip and apply a small amount of cream to the desired area (We recommend sides of the neck, chest, wrists, beard or hair).
Storage: Store the cologne at room temperature or cooler. Do not put water inside the product and keep it in a dry area with the lid closed. After a year the quality of the product will start to fade as the natural essential oils evaporate. If a wet oily substance gathers on the top of the product this is caused by the Essential oils separating from the wax and is completely normal. To correct this simply mix the product with your finger before applying. Sometimes white lightening line shapes appear along the surface of the product. These marks are cracks in the Jojoba wax and are completely normal.
