“I sought to convey the Queen of Sheba’s beauty between desert and sumptuous gardens, in a scent where a lush and poetic green adorned with velvety notes shines through.”
From its opening notes, Jardin de Saba sings an aldehyde freshness, like a cloud of dew. The sparkling accord of mandarin orange and red berries tints the fragrance like a joyful euphoria. The senses then work together spontaneously as the perfume exhales a zesty and lively effervescence.
The green of the mandarin orange interacts with a lily of the valley that is filled with sap and boasts crisp stalks. Then comes a heart with a verdant, slightly earthy breath that is enhanced by a sumptuous bouquet of roses and Egyptian jasmine absolute obtained after the creation of a concrete. In a true feat of perfumery, the nose exalts the Queen of Sheba’s beauty in the heart.
The exquisite aroma is both distinguished and proud, thanks to the elegant chypre structure that concentrates the oak moss accord and intense patchouli heart LMR that is stripped of its strongest camphor notes. This signature embodies the queen’s other dimension: her eternal power, which is captured in a sillage like none other.
