Composition of the fragrance:

In the middle notes of the fragrance an intense floral motif develops consisting of Egyptian and Indian jasmine, jasmine sambac and an elegant hint of jasmine tea. The base notes are then concluded by robust cedar wood whose depth is highlighted by the mysterious presence of ambergris that adds a sensual, captivating dimension to the entire composition.

Story of the fragrance:

Rooted in volcanic soil, sublime and beautiful, they capture the harmony and serenity that radiate in every drop of fragrance. The fragrance composition celebrates not only the beauty of nature, but also the avant-garde art that is reflected in its design. The modern black cap gives the bottle an elegant timelessness and harmonises the fragrances across the collection.
