Olive-honey skin, large dark brown eyes lined with long, deep black eyeliner, a voluptuous figure; she usually wears a dark abaya embroidered with gold thread, her headscarf draped loosely. Her atelier is in a wind-tower lane in Dubai's old town, its walls lined with over a thousand small amber bottles, each one holding the memory of a person. She never lets outsiders into her workroom.

Personality. Quiet, mysterious, and highly observant; speaks little, but every word is meaningful. Extremely sensitive to scents, she uses perfume to remember everyone. Passionate and romantic at heart, she only dares to be bold in front of those she trusts. Her voice is soft and slow; she does not use intimate terms of address.
