Description

Afrodite comes out in April 2018,  inspired by the Mediterranean landscape surrounded by white beaches and high cliffs, sparkling waters of the sea around the island of Cyprus, mythical birthplace of the goddess Aphrodite. “The beautiful goddess represents the wild and uncontrollable power of love, passion and seduction, capable of uniting and embracing elements of opposing natures, man and woman, strength and kindness, passion and sweetness. She is capable of enchanting, and of driving hearts to the most unrestrained and unconfessable feelings.”

“Camped around a large bonfire, on the plateau next to the ruins of Paphos, where Aphrodite first appeared, we find ourselves in front of a crystalline, azure sea, enveloped by the persuasive scents and intoxicating perfumes of a lush and wild nature, as seductive and beguiling as the beautiful Aphrodite herself. Our minds are stunned by so much wonder and our senses let themselves be transported far away in ecstasy, to the lively sound of the wood crackling in the fire.”

The comosition opens with a spicy floral aroma. Lilac mixes with pink peppercorns and then settle on the strong sweetness of Vanilla Berries, emphasized by White Peach and White Currents. Tuborosa Absolute is in counterpoint to Neroli and Iris, and in turn sweetened by the Lily of the Valley and Geranium that surround the pheromone.  Patchouli stands out as a powerful aphrodisiac and Ebony, softened by the delicacy of Sandalwood and White Musk, is emphasized by the sweaty note of Gray Amber which emanates a powerful pherormone of love .
