Surrati Perfumes Makkah: the Three Names on the Malaysian List

Which Surrati fragrances carry Makkah in the name?

Three rows on Surrati's Malaysian list take their names from Makkah and Madinah: Hajar Al Aswad, Kiswa and Rawda. All three sit in the Heritage collection, all three are 140 ml, and all three are RM 199. Nothing else across the 44-row list is named this way.

Heritage is the house archive tier: eight scents, each at 140 ml, each at RM 199. The three named rows share that shelf with Honey Oud, Atlantis, Dream Valley, Omnivat and Pink Miss. Size and price do not change between them, so the choice inside the collection is a choice of name, not of format.

Worth saying plainly — three rows out of 44 is a short list. A shopper expecting a whole Makkah range will not find one here. What exists is three fragrances in one collection, at one size, at one price, which at least makes them easy to compare in a single message.

What does each of the three names refer to?

Hajar Al Aswad is the name of the Black Stone, set in the corner of the Kaaba. Kiswa is the name of the embroidered cloth that covers the Kaaba and is replaced every year. Rawda takes its name from the Rawdah, an area inside the Prophet's Mosque.

The third name is the one shoppers misread. The Rawdah is in Madinah, not Makkah — the area between the Prophet's pulpit and his chamber in the Prophet's Mosque. Two of the names point at the Kaaba and one points at a different city, and a listing page rarely spells that out.

A name is a reference and nothing more. It records what the house called a fragrance. It says nothing about where a bottle was filled, what is inside it, or any connection to a place beyond the word printed on the label, and nothing here is sold as more than a perfume.

Why does a perfume house name a fragrance after a place?

Naming a fragrance after a place does two jobs. It gives a scent an identity a shopper can hold on to and repeat to a seller, and it signals where the house itself sits. Surrati is a perfume house from Makkah, so a Makkah name reads as a statement of origin.

Makkah has been a crossroads for fragrance for a very long time, because pilgrimage moves goods as well as people and scent is small, light and easy to carry home. A house based in the city naming rows after its landmarks is drawing on an association that already exists rather than inventing one.

The rest of the list is named the same way, only pointing elsewhere. Whole collections take place names — Dubai, Arabian — and single rows do too, from Oud Dubai to Atlantis and Dream Valley. Reading the Heritage trio as a naming choice, rather than as a claim, is the accurate way to read them.

Why do people search for Surrati perfumes Makkah?

Two different shoppers type that phrase. One wants the specific rows that carry the city's names and can be answered from a list. The other met a scent on Umrah or Hajj, came home without a label, and is hoping a house name will lead back to it.

The second shopper needs a different kind of answer. Someone who remembers the word Kiswa on a box wants a row, a size and a price. Someone who remembers only the smell of a shop wants a match, and near the pilgrimage routes the same oil is often sold under several different names.

Describing the material works better than chasing the name. Say whether it was an oil or a spray, whether it read woody, rosy, sweet or powdery, whether people noticed it across a room, and how it was sold. A seller can shortlist from that. A shop's location tells them nothing.

• Oil dabbed from a rollerball, or a spray from an atomiser?
• Woody and smoky, bright and rosy, sweet, or clean and powdery?
• Noticed across a room, or only up close?
• Decanted from a big bottle, or sealed in a printed box?
• Any lettering on the box at all — even a partial word?

How do the three compare with the rest of the Malaysian list?

Hajar Al Aswad, Kiswa and Rawda sit mid-range. At RM 199 for 140 ml they cost less than the 1929 line, priced from RM 389 at 150 ml, and more than the Classic rows at RM 99 for 100 ml. Eleven collections cover 44 fragrances in total.

Volume is where Heritage earns its position. 140 ml is a large bottle, and anyone comparing across the list should compare size and price together rather than price alone, because the collections are sold at several different volumes and a cheaper row is sometimes a smaller one.

The rest of the Heritage shelf is the fairest comparison. Honey Oud sits in the same collection at the same 140 ml and the same RM 199, so a buyer who would rather have a material in the name than a place pays exactly the same for it.

How do you order one of the three in Malaysia?

Ordering runs through WhatsApp on +60 11-6228 1898. There is no cart, no online checkout and no shopfront to walk into. Name the row — Hajar Al Aswad, Kiswa or Rawda — confirm RM 199 in ringgit, and arrange delivery in the same conversation.

Nationwide delivery across Malaysia is arranged in that same thread, which is why a phone number does more work here than a product page would. Prices are the recommended selling price from Surrati's own 2026 list, so asking for the figure in ringgit before you pay is a reasonable thing to do.

There is no smell-before-you-buy option, and that is worth knowing in advance. Buying on a name alone is buying blind, so ask what the fragrance is built around before you commit. The same conversation that confirms your price can answer that question just as easily, and it costs nothing to ask.
