THE PERFUMER'S MESSAGE

“Shrewd and strategic, the Queen of Sheba was a strong woman who knew how to assert herself in her time. In creating this perfume, I aimed to express her bold personality by selecting notes that are simultaneously powerful and refined: tuberose for its confident femininity, saffron for its intense refinement and sandalwood for its sensuality.”

FRAGRANCE DESCRIPTION

Orange flower raw material Reine de Saba
Patchouli raw material Reine de Saba paris
Dates raw material reine de saba paris
Vanilla raw material reine de saba paris

Like at the start of a happy day, a pleasing citrus aroma is released. The dream can begin. It instantly dazzles with an exquisite saffron—that perfectly chiseled precious gold—and by CO2 -extracted cardamom that is lively and effervescent, so faithful to the original mold. These magic spices are woven together to create a distinct depth.

The fragrance is then joined by tuberose absolute, the narcotic flower par excellence, which seizes the sky at nightfall. In its absolute heart it reveals a sunlit aura with traces of the Orient, a luminous hint of the Queen of Sheba. An ylang extract completes the sensation of luxuriousness.

It is joined by Indonesian patchouli essence LMR, which is obtained through molecular distillation and concentrates the plant’s most irresistible smoky notes, made supple by a sensual and creamy sandalwood and then studded with amber. An olfactory spark in a stunning sillage is then unveiled.
