In a world where luxury is often defined by price tags and branding, Hidayat Fragrances brings a refreshing change — a reminder that true luxury lies in purity. Founded by Shabeena Ansari, a visionary who blends science, sincerity, and spirituality, the brand represents a movement toward conscious beauty. It’s not just about smelling good — it’s about feeling good, living pure, and giving back.
The Inspiration Behind Hidayat Fragrances
Every brand has a beginning, but few have a purpose as heartfelt as Hidayat Fragrances. For Shabeena, the idea was born out of genuine concern and curiosity. During her time as a computer science student at Jamia Hamdard University, she began researching how cosmetic chemicals affect human health. What she found deeply disturbed her — that several perfumes in the market contained low-quality alcohol, synthetic fixatives, and harmful compounds that could lead to skin irritation and hormonal imbalance.
“I started questioning everything I was using daily,” she recalls. “Perfume was something I loved, but I couldn’t ignore the fact that it could harm my health in the long run.”
Rather than giving up her love for fragrance, Shabeena decided to redefine it. She wanted to build a brand that respected both the body and the soul — one that represented integrity in every drop.
The Philosophy of Purity
At the heart of Hidayat Fragrances lies a simple yet profound philosophy:
“Luxury should never come at the cost of purity.”
For Shabeena, perfume is not just a sensory indulgence — it’s an emotional experience. It has the power to lift moods, evoke memories, and express personality. But most importantly, it should bring positivity, not risk.
Her mission became clear — to create high-quality, health-conscious perfumes using natural ingredients, essential oils, and safe carriers, all while keeping them affordable for everyone. She worked tirelessly, experimenting with different combinations for over six months before finalizing her first batch of fragrances.
The result was a perfect blend of purity, longevity, and charm — something she proudly calls “divine simplicity.”
The Divine Meaning of ‘Hidayat’
The name Hidayat itself reflects the brand’s soul. Derived from the Arabic word meaning “guidance from God,” it symbolizes faith, purpose, and gratitude. Shabeena often shares that her entrepreneurial path was never pre-planned — it was something she was guided toward.
“I never thought I’d start a perfume brand,” she says. “But one day, it felt like this was what I was meant to do — to create something that makes people feel good and do good.”
Her faith continues to guide her business philosophy, reminding her that success without sincerity is hollow. Every product she creates carries this essence of divine guidance — making Hidayat Fragrances not just a brand but a blessing.
Fragrances Crafted with Care
Hidayat Fragrances currently features a curated collection of signature scents, each designed to evoke a different emotion. From the rich sophistication of Caramel Oud to the soft sweetness of Musk Flora, every bottle tells a story.
The perfumes are crafted with precision, using carefully sourced natural ingredients and premium essential oils. By avoiding harsh synthetic components and harmful preservatives, Shabeena ensures that each fragrance is skin-safe and long-lasting — a balance rarely found in today’s market.
“We wanted to create something timeless — perfumes that don’t just fade away in a few hours but stay with you throughout your day, reminding you of purity and peace,” she shares.
A Business Built on Compassion
What sets Hidayat Fragrances apart is not just the purity of its products, but the purpose behind them. Shabeena has pledged 20% of the brand’s profits toward supporting people in need — particularly women and families facing financial hardships.
Her aim is to ensure that every purchase from Hidayat Fragrances contributes to something meaningful. “It’s not just about selling perfumes; it’s about spreading kindness,” she says. “If every bottle can bring happiness to someone else’s life, then that’s real success.”
This initiative reflects the brand’s belief that beauty should be inclusive, empathetic, and impactful.
Empowering Through Simplicity
In an age where marketing often overshadows authenticity, Hidayat Fragrances remains proudly simple — both in its presentation and its message. The minimalist design, transparent ingredient lists, and honest communication reflect Shabeena’s dedication to integrity.
She emphasizes that transparency is the truest form of luxury. Consumers today, especially younger generations, are becoming more aware and selective. They want to know what’s inside their products, how they’re made, and who makes them.
By being open about every step of her formulation process, Shabeena has built a deep sense of trust with her growing community of customers.
The Journey Ahead
As Hidayat Fragrances prepares to launch on its official website and leading marketplaces, the brand’s future looks bright — and beautifully scented. Shabeena plans to introduce new collections that explore floral, oriental, and unisex blends, each celebrating nature’s diversity.She is also exploring eco-friendly packaging and sustainable sourcing, ensuring that the brand’s growth aligns with its ethi
