Fragrance Character
SIAM 1928 Kurma is a unisex fragrance released in 2025 by the young niche house SIAM 1928.
Founded in Bangkok in 2019, the brand draws on Thailand's imagery and cultural heritage, transforming local inspiration into contemporary perfumery for an international audience.
Kurma is part of the Four Rajas collection and unfolds as an unusual composition at the intersection of green, fruity and woody nuances.
It is a fragrance with a distinctive personality: fresh and cool at first, soft and creamy as it develops, then deep, mossy and enveloping in the drydown.
Development and Mood
Kurma opens with kiwi, pandan leaf, shiso, soy milk and violet leaf.
Kiwi gives the opening a juicy sweet-and-sour sparkle, while the green leaves add a damp, natural freshness, and soy milk softens the composition, making it smoother.
As it develops, the composition becomes calmer and more expansive.
Cedar and fig create a dryish woody-fruity heart, pistachio adds a delicate nutty softness, and seaweed brings a cool mineral-green nuance.
The fragrance settles into oakmoss, sandalwood and tonka bean.
Mossy depth blends with creamy woods and a touch of spicy sweetness, allowing the fragrance to balance natural austerity with cozy sensuality.
Positioning and Wearability
Kurma is presented as a unisex Eau de Parfum and will appeal to those who enjoy unconventional green compositions without the feeling of a simple citrus accord.
Its mood comes through especially well in warm spring weather, humid summer and early autumn, when green and mossy nuances feel expressive without becoming heavy.
The fragrance has very strong sillage, so Kurma is noticeable in its surroundings and can leave a distinctive aromatic impression.
It should be applied with the setting in mind: for an office or a small room, it is best to start with a minimal number of sprays, while outdoors the composition can unfold more freely and on a larger scale.
Precise recommendations for applying it to skin or clothing are not provided in the available information.
There is also no data on other concentrations of the same fragrance, so Kurma cannot yet be compared with Eau de Toilette or Extrait versions.
Perfumer and Brand Style
The composition was created by Nutt Wesshasartar.
In Kurma, her approach is expressed through an unexpected combination of materials: fruity freshness meets green leaves, a milky accord, marine nuances and a warm woody base.
For SIAM 1928, this release is important as an example of how the brand's Thai origins can be expressed not through literal exoticism, but through a contemporary exploration of natural imagery, textures and contrasts.
Kurma is intended for fragrance lovers who appreciate compositions with character and enjoy observing the gradual transition from cool greenery to soft, mossy woods.
