ESSENTIAL PARFUMS - NICE BERGAMOTE - Extrait de Parfum
Reshaping my inner Energy.
Feeding every single athom of me.
You got five senses. Get the most out of them. Emotionally.
.
Nice Bergamote di Essential Parfums l' Extrait de Parfum che riverbera energia positiva, vitalità, freschezza, benessere dinamico.
Energia, vivacità, solarità. Dentro un’estate mediterranea, aromi che fanno subito allegria e dinamismo. Scintille citrine di bergamotto e arancia amara, il niveo splendore floreale di gelsomino sambac e ylangylang, infine, come d’incanto, un impeto dolce ambrato boisé ipnotico con cedro, patchouli, tonka, muschi. La semplicità resa perfetta.
Armonia d’aromi da prediligere al risveglio mattutino, che riportano dolcemente alla realtà e infondono chiarezza, concretezza, equilibrio. Sentori che predispongono a buoni inizi, sollevano l’umore, mettono in connessione mente e corpo, per sentirsi radicati e al tempo stesso leggeri e lucidi. Di fluente Serenità.
A deeply sensual and indulgent olfactory experience. Velvet Iris unveils a bold yet irresistibly soft and velvety signature. It leaves behind a mesmerizing, elegant sillage that feels endlessly seductive and carnal.
Masterpiece on my skin. Velvet. Iris. Velvet Iris. Dominique Ropion knows. Thanks Nature.

Capolavoro su pelle. Velvet Iris. Essential Parfums.
Si accomoda dispiegando i suoi contrasti, senza invadenza, spregiudicata e sensibile, verde e matura, ipnotica e carnale.
Distante anni luce dall’interpretazione classica del fiore fiorentino, nobile e polveroso.
Qui svetta per carattere, deciso, incisivo, con quel guizzo brisky erbaceo aromatico mentolato di pepe rosa, buchu, curcuma, sporco di terra e radici, solido nel sostenere la raffinata estensione di concreta d’iris, preziosa, accogliente come un bozzolo di velluto.
Dominique Ropion toglie all’iris l’attitudine nostalgica? Forse, di certo rimuove quella patina banalmente retro, ne sublima le nuance, lo affida al vigore verde brillante naturale di lentisco e galbano. Infine lo vezzeggia, lo scalda, lo incornicia, come volendo rispondere al desiderio di eternizzarlo, con legno di sandalo, labdano e un soffice accordo suede. Una splendente collisione d’aromi aristocratici e selvatici, essenzialmente poesia.
Velvet Iris è eleganza senza vanteria, ha l’attrazione contemplativa del secondo sguardo, più attento e profondo, la sensualità dell’esperienza, mai superficiale, mai solipsistica. Così la ami per sempre.
Creata da Dominique Ropion.

So, it's gift season, with Sinterklaas day on the 5th, then Christmas, ergo the worst time in the world to order anything just for kicks. The minute I got the email that the little niche perfume discovery set is available again, it's instantly out of stock.
Also, why is it that when you wait 4 months for a library book (or 2) to come in, you suddenly get the overwhelming urge to start on a 7book high fantasy series (tad Williams).
Bois Impérial (eau de parfum)
Essential Parfums
Nose: Quentin Bisch
Woods
Freshly crushed and spicy Thai Basil leaves meet the sparkling peppery and grapefruit facets of Nepalese Timut Pepper absolute. A brilliant combination that contrasts perfectly with the bold woody signature of the fragrance.
A green, rich and earthy Haitian Vetiver oil echoes with Georgywood – an exclusive molecule with powerful cedarwood tones. This vibrating woody association is illuminated by the sophisticated floralcy of Petalia.
Majestic Akigalawood truly signs the fragrance. This exclusive natural ingredient is upcycled from Patchouli through a biotechnology process. Its unique spicy-woody character is enhanced by a rich Indonesian Patchouli oil and a powerful, sustainable note of Ambrofix.
Orange x Santal (eau de parfum)
Essential Parfums
Nose: Natalie Cetto
Woods
Radiant and joyful, natural bitter orange and natural sandalwood transport you to the Italian coast.
The bright juice of the orange is offset by the aromatic bitterness from its peel, rounded out with green basil from Egypt.
French oak moss provides a chypre accord, while natural French cypress wood and Australian sandalwood anchor the luminous top notes.
We use natural sandalwood oil harvested by Aboriginal communities in Western Australia, promoting a sustainable supply of the precious ingredient.
“I imagined a fresh and sensual fragrance where the sparkling and luscious facets of bitter orange from Italy play with a magnificent, soft and creamy Australian sandalwood album.”
Key notes: Orange, Basil, Oak moss, Cypress, Australian sandalwood
The Musc (eau de parfum)
Essential Parfums
Nose: Calice Becker
Soft floral
At once fresh, honeyed, and warm, The Musc is a subtle blend of captivating scents. It opens with red ginger from Laos and natural lavandin grosso from France. Natural and sustainable beeswax brings a creamy sweetness to the heart, paired with a pure note of Nirvanolide musk. Australia’s natural sandalwood punctuates the blend with warm, woody tones.
Replanted 20 years ago, Australia’s Sandalwood Album provides Aboriginal communities with protection and sustainability for their land.
“I imagined this fragrance as a cloud of enveloping and comforting musk. A delicious musk blended with red ginger, lavender, a radiant floral heart and soft, woody tones of a sublime sandalwood album from Australia.”
Key notes: Red ginger, Lavandin, Beeswax, Nirvanolide, Australian sandalwood
