Silan Pasha is a sister distillation to our Ceylon — same provenance, same era — but where Ceylon charts its own path by combining the soul of Walla Patta with the structure of Crassna into something genuinely unique, Silan Pasha goes the other way. It is unapologetically Crassna from Sri Lanka, and that is both its limitation and its appeal.
It carries the censured yellow-incense aromatic note that Thailand-grown Crassna has long made famous, here translated through the Sri Lankan terroir. Direct, recognisable, immediate from the first application, with no ambiguity about what it is.
This oil has already been decanted into 2.5 gram bottles and is only available in that quantity. A good entry point into Sri Lankan Crassna at a price that genuinely reflects the fairness we try to apply across the Kinana range.

At Kinana, artisanal fragrance means perfumery made by hand, in small batches, by makers who answer to their materials rather than to a production schedule. Where an industrial scent is engineered for consistency and scale — built to smell identical across millions of bottles, to a tightly controlled cost, favouring synthetic bases and standardised accords — an artisanal one is composed with care around genuine naturals and well-chosen isolates, accepting the small variations that come with real ingredients rather than smoothing them away. It favours quality and provenance over yield: real oud rather than an oud-like accord, materials chosen for their character, and compositions given time to rest and mature. Our purpose at Kinana is to bring that craft within reach — fragrance with depth and individuality, revealing itself gradually on the skin and carrying the character of what it was made from, rather than a uniform impression produced at scale.
