125 bottles of Zahd were produced by Perfumer, Josh Lobb of Slumberhouse. They sold out in 24 hours in October 2013, despite a future delivery date that was several months later. Here is an index to various reviews of this never-to-be-recreated ‘fume which went through 80 iterations over the two year composition process.

The Fragrant Man 
Jordan, did you get a bottle?
Yes, with Portia! We negotiated visiting rights, spritzing rights and time-sharing rights in our refrigerated cabinets – all without a lawyer!
Awaiting your review, Nancy because only your nose Knows. Now chime that temple bell made by the blind Tibetan monk – I know you have the set of 12.
Yay! And I love Leonard Cohen.
I don’t like to read the reviews on this one because I hate to know what I’m missing. I knew it was going to be fabulous so why I didn’t get a bottle is beyond me. I’m glad you and Portia got some. You smell wonderful.
O Poodle, skip on; something wonderful will come your way soon. I am sure Josh is working on that right now.
I’m so sad because I had the chance to buy it, and yet I decided to pass on it (no blind buying rule!). Now I’m sad that I didn’t break my own rules. Sighhhh.
