The Four Seasons Hotel Istanbul at Sultanahmet, in collaboration with Turkish heritage fragrance house Atelier Rebul, has introduced a signature fragrance—Whispers of Jasmine—a custom scent that encapsulates the elegance, serenity, and heritage of one of the city’s most storied landmarks.
This exclusive fragrance doesn’t just scent the air—it tells a story. Designed specifically for the Sultanahmet property, Whispers of Jasmine is a refined composition of floral, woody, and earthy notes, evoking the neoclassical beauty of the hotel’s golden-hued walls and the ancient layers of the city itself.
A Sensory Journey Through Time
At the heart of the fragrance is sun-drenched jasmine, symbolic of Istanbul’s radiant light and the graceful arches of the hotel’s architecture. The scent blossoms with:
Top Notes: Bergamot, pear, cardamom, and cypress – a vibrant and refreshing opening
Heart Notes: Jasmine, magnolia, lavender, and violet – soft, elegant, and floral
Base Notes: Ambergris, patchouli, and moss – grounding the experience with warmth and memory
“In creating Whispers of Jasmine, we sought to bottle the soul of Sultanahmet,” said Serap Akkuş, Hotel Manager. “This fragrance is an invitation to connect, through scent, with the rich heritage and the serene spirit of this extraordinary place.”
An Olfactory Signature for the Hotel
From serene hallways to quiet corners, Whispers of Jasmine will gently accompany guests throughout their stay, becoming a distinctive part of the Four Seasons Sultanahmet experience. It adds an extra sensory dimension to the property’s ambiance—calm, warm, and unmistakably Istanbul.
For those wishing to extend the memory of their stay, Whispers of Jasmine is also available for purchase directly from the hotel. It’s a souvenir of scent—a bottle of Istanbul’s light, history, and grace.
A Continuing Legacy of Experience
With Whispers of Jasmine, the Four Seasons Hotel Istanbul at Sultanahmet deepens its tradition of offering authentic, multi-sensory guest experiences. Much like the architecture and surroundings that inspired it, this fragrance tells a story that’s both timeless and deeply rooted in place.
Whether visiting for the first time or returning to relive cherished memories, guests will find that Whispers of Jasmine transforms a simple stay into something poetic—a fragrant echo of Istanbul’s timeless charm.
