Parfum extract

Mood: Dramatic, Hypnotic, Theatrical
Dark and opaque, shimmering golden, dramatic and decadent: Byzantine Amber is Francesca's interpretation of an amber accord.
The opening with cinnamon and the full-bodied scent of geranium develops into an amber base with a dark, animalic and mineral facet.
Byzantine Amber is an intense and decadent perfume, like a great civilization in the final phase of its heyday.
Salome by Gustave Moreau is a painting that expresses the splendor and drama of this olfactory work in pictorial form.
The beautiful mosaics of the Byzantine civilization, such as those in Ravenna, are composed of lustrous gold tiles, imperfected by the ravages of time. This sense of theatrical and luminous splendor, accompanied by a dark and obscure side, inspired Byzantine Amber.
The geranium – fleshy, rosy, spicy, slightly green – contrasts with the dry minerality of ambergris and styrax.
The basic framework of this work is a familiar structure, an amber accord enriched by a spicy note that makes it sensual: cinnamon.
This warm and luminous accord is darkened by leathery, smoky and animalic aspects that give intensity and character to the composition.
