In the Hindu tradition, Brahma is the creator god, responsible for knowledge. Abode of Brahma conjures bright alertness with spiritual stillness. Starting open and alive with a luminous burst of sharp basil and tart rhubarb, it softens with the diffusive green of galbanum mixed with delicate white florals. Grounding the experience are transparent threads of incense, sandalwood and ambergris.

Fugazzi founder Bram Niessink was inspired to create this crisp, refreshing fragrance during a stay in Bali. Thirsty opens with juicy apple, green galbanum, airy bluebell, and the clean snap of bamboo. At its heart, soft jasmine, rose, neroli, and ripe fig add a cool, floral brightness. As it settles, grounding notes of cedarwood, warm amber, and smooth musk leave a light, lingering trail — like dew on skin after a cool morning swim. What happens in Bali, stays in Bali, but you can get Thirsty anywhere.

Matilde Bonaparte, niece of Napoleon I, was known for her breasts (“le plus beau décolleté”) and her talent as a painter. She also hosted a celebrated 19th-century Parisian salon attended by the greatest artists and writers of her time. This namesake perfume is an olfactory salon of provocative white florals (ylang-ylang, narcissus, jasmine) given tropical succulence with passion fruit and papaya. Mathilde’s heady brightness is softened by iris and sandalwood.

PG19.1 Neroli ad Astra is a musky fresh formula with a delicate green woody character.

It starts with a soft clean mix of mandarin, neroli and geranium and gradually descends to dry powdery spiciness of Haiti vetiver and an exotic note of desert agave flower.

This has been an absolute hit with ladies for a few years now. 

Pair this perfume with the indulgent Neroli ad Astra hand and body wash infused with the same fragrance.

I was inspired while visiting Kew Gardens in London in May. Every May there are hundreds of blooming magnolia trees in different sorts, sizes, scents and colours. Usually it is a very rainy season and my inspiration was to create a scent of the water and rain on magnolia trees.  

The symbol of this modern perfume is an American modern dance pioneer Ruth St. Denis. She is not only a very talented performer, but also very feminine. 

Divine Dancer is an ethereal, watercoloured, light, fresh, feminine floral perfume. It is modern and vivacious fruity floral scent .

The Divine Dancer perfume is dedicated to one of the first American modern dance and ballet performers Ruth St. Denis.

Her vibrant and spirited art of dance, influenced by the East and South Asia, her divine body move and incredible costumes made Ruth St. Denis a worldwide well known star. Her body projects as Temple of femininity. 

When the dancer emerged from the darkness of the stage, her presence was immediately captivating, the air suddenly fragrant with her appearance. Adorned in jewels from head to toe, radiant in a special gold sari, her hair crowned in jasmine, she is an embodiment of divine feminine, mirroring the images of goddesses of Lakshmi and Saraswati but with the talented Ruth St. Denis touch of modern dance and ballet movement.

The Mediterranean freshness of the essence, whose citrus notes are accompanied by the sensuality of damask rose, sublimating in sinuous oriental echoes, is inspired by the colour that has made the frescoes of Pompeian domes famous and unmistakable all over the world.

The pigment obtained from the mineral cinnabar, Rossopompeiano, emblem of a part of the history the perfumer Agatho’s city, becomes a perfume.

Inspired by the concepts of “green” and “freedom”, Terra Hedera evokes horseback riding on the Mongolian steppe. A green hyacinth intertwined with tenacious ivy and crisp galbanum.

‘O absent presence, Stella is not here’

The fifth and final instalment of the Revenants collection draws inspiration from the Elizabethan poet Sir Philip Sidney. In his Sonnet sequence ‘Astrophel and Stella’ Sidney develops and captures the essence of a haunting… the presence of one that is always felt but never seen.

‘Now I, wit-beaten long by hardest fate,

So dull am, that I cannot look into

The ground of this fierce love and lovely hate,

Then some good body tell me how I do,

Whose presence absence, absent presence is;

Blesst in my curse, and cursed in my bliss.’
