Once you know it, you never forget it.

The smell of hot metal.

Can you define the smell of metal?

TABAC VAN JAVA

A tribute to Java's to***co heritage.

Warm to***co meets clove, cinnamon, ginger, coriander, and cardamom, layered with vanilla, tonka bean, cacao, amber, and cedar.

Comforting, spicy, and slightly sweet.

Story of Morning Dew

As the first light of dawn gently filtered through the trees, I took a peaceful stroll through the dewy meadow. The blades of grass were adorned with diamond-like dew drops, sparkling in the soft sunlight. The sweet fragrance of wildflowers mingled with the fresh, invigorating scent of the morning dew, creating a beautiful aroma that filled the air.

As I walked, a sense of tranquility washed over me, reminding me to appreciate the simple yet stunning things in life. The morning dew seemed to cleanse and purify the world around me, making everything feel fresh and new. It was a moment that would stay with me forever, leaving me feeling renewed and rejuvenated.

This breathtaking experience inspired us to create The Morning Dew fragrance from House of Dappers, capturing the essence of a peaceful and refreshing morning walk in nature.

The number 5 Teh Melati

Tea was not born in Nusantara.
It arrived through distant trade routes and took root in highland soil. Once poured on plantation verandas and noble tables, it slowly moved beyond estates and titles.

Over time, it became part of daily life.

Jasmine blooms at night. Tea leaves are harvested under daylight. When they meet and rock sugar melts gently into the cup, the brew deepens into something fuller and more resonant.

The moment we highlight is infusion.

Hot water touches tightly rolled leaves.
The aroma rises darker than expected, green at first, then richer and honeyed.
A slow sweetness unfolds, rounded and profound.
The dissolving sugar gives weight and texture, enriching the body of the tea.

We capture that depth in the opening of Teh Melati. Freshly steeped leaves release a warm, enveloping aroma. The jasmine softens the air while the tea grows fuller, slightly bitter, gently sweet, and subtly deep.

As it settles, smooth woods emerge beneath the warmth, creating a lingering impression that feels grounded and intimate.

In Indonesia, Teh Melati quietly pioneered the rise of tea inspired perfumery, shaping a new appreciation for brewed warmth translated into scent.

The tea becomes richer.
Sweeter, yet steady.
Soft, yet deep.

Once reserved for a few.
Now poured for all.

Teh Melati is a ritual carried in scent.
