It has built-in, one-of-a-kind innovations such as its remote-controlled spray and hydraulics mechanisms that have been incorporated for the first time ever on a bottle of perfume. Each of SHUMUKH design features have been intricately crafted in gold and silver and ornamented with International Gemological Institute (IGI) certified diamonds and precious stones.
