A perfume that sounds like a call to an island that has been able to defend its identity through the centuries, with a character forged by the wind and salt, stone and water.
The inspiration: Sardinia
Known as legendary warriors of the sea, in the distant thirteenth century BC, the Shardana furrowed the waters of the Mediterranean, challenging the great empires of the time.
Recognizable by their helmets and for the big round shields, these fighters left a profound mark in the history of Sardinia, becoming a symbol of strength and resistance. Their inheritance is still visible in the ruins of the nuraghi, majestic stone towers that dot the island and that tell of an epic past made of courage and tenacity.
Extrait is inspired by this ancient history, celebrating Sardinia, where wild nature meets the echo of the battles of the past.
A perfume that sounds like a call to an island that has been able to defend its identity through the centuries, with a character forged by the wind and salt, stone and water. Here the sea is not only a scenario, but a protagonist who incessantly dialogue with the earth, transporting saline aromas that evoke freedom and adventure.
And so it tells a sensory journey along the Sardinian coasts, where the scent of the sea is intertwined with wild myrtle, rosemary and the earthy essences of the Mediterranean scrub. A tribute to a proud and indomitable people who live in harmony with their land and its sea, in a primordial balance.
Olfactory description of Saérdan
And so it opens with a fresh and vibrant breath of marine notes, amplified by the delicate aromaticity of the starry anise to instill a spicy and unexpected panache.
The hall and salt agreement enhances the marine soul of the fragrance, immediately giving a decisive and enveloping character, evoking the brackish breeze of the Sardinian coast.
In the heart of the composition, the marine notes intertwine with the balsamicity of the wild myrtle and the balm of Gurjum creating an aromatic and intense bouquet. This combination gives depth and originality, recalling the hints of the Mediterranean scrub, where the scent of wild herbs mixes with that of the sea.
The background notes enhance the woody essence of the perfume. Virginia cedar wood melts harmoniously with myrtle and balsamic shades, prolonging the marine character of the opening notes.
The bottom is further heated by a refined mix of mosses that marry with the terrose notes of the patchouli and the creamy heat of the Malabar sandal, thus amplifying the persistence and depth of the fragrance.
