Nagi are divine female half-human, half-serpent beings from Hindu and Buddhist mythology, revered as guardians of treasure. The Nagi opens with the creamy sweetness of coconut and the verdant freshness of fig leaf, evoking the primal vitality of the serpent. Steamed Indian rice and spicy clove create a scent of profound warmth and comfort. Clean musk unfolds like the softness of a serpent’s renewed skin after shedding, blending seamlessly with sun-kissed warmth — tender, pure and familiar.
All about this fragrance
Vibe check
This is a close-wearing scent for moments when you want warmth without heaviness: intimate rooms, slow conversation, and the quiet confidence of being noticed at close range. Its savory creaminess reads calm and composed rather than loud, with a gentle, almost tactile presence.
How to wear
Best in mild to warm weather, especially when you want a soft but distinctive trail. Apply lightly, as the coconut, rice and musk sit close to the skin and bloom gradually; a few sprays are enough to let the clove and woods emerge without overwhelming the fragrance’s clean, savory character.
Who it’s for
For wearers who like creamy musks, textured gourmands and fragrances that feel both fresh and intimate. It will appeal to those drawn to fig, coconut and rice notes, and to scents that balance comfort, subtle spice and a skin-like finish.

The nose
Ankita Gill. Gill is the founder and perfumer behind Param Sara, shaping the house’s entire scent language herself. Her work tends to balance Indian ingredients and ritual references with a modern, polished structure, often using natural materials and a clear emotional concept rather than decorative complexity. She trained at the Grasse Institute of Perfumery and built Param Sara around the idea of Eastern perfumery translated for a global audience. In The Nagi, that approach shows in the contrast between cooling coconut and fig leaf, warm rice and clove, and a soft musk that keeps the composition close to the skin.
Param Sara’s story
Param Sara is a niche Indian house built around Eastern materials, introspection and a modern sense of ritual. Its perfumes are conceived as sensory journeys rather than simple accords, with an emphasis on natural ingredients, sustainability and a bridge between Indian heritage and contemporary global perfumery.
The Nagi’s concept
The Nagi draws on the image of the Nagi, divine serpent beings from Hindu and Buddhist mythology associated with guardianship and treasure. The fragrance translates that symbolism into scent through cooling coconut and fig leaf, then a warm heart of rice and clove, ending in a clean musk that suggests renewal and skin.
Extra info
The Nagi is named after serpent deities from Hindu and Buddhist mythology, and the brand describes it as a “Cold to Warm Musk.” It is part of Param Sara’s broader exploration of duality, with cooling top notes and a warm, comforting base.
