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.

Lively and full of contrasts, Dancing Light is a reflection of the northern lights that inspired it. Icy mint and Siberian pine needles bring a breath of coolness. Then a bouquet of bright white flowers with jasmine, neroli and seringa, dances in the heart warmed by the sandalwood.

Hasbaya is a city in Lebanon, and Néroli Hasbaya is inspired by a Lebanese dessert called mouhalabieh, a milk pudding flavoured with orange blossom and pistachio. This extrait opens with incandescent neroli, wrapped in nutty’n’buttery hints of pistachio and almond. Orange blossom reveals its full depth in the base, and the creamy richness of sandalwood and Peruvian balsam enhance the enfolding trail of this radiant perfume.

Perfumer: Céline Perdriel

An aromatic cologne with a very classic feel: various fresh herbs, lavender and neroli.

Bon Parfumeur open olfactive dimensions and invite you to add your own story. Try 001 if you like colognes on the drier, more herbaceous side.

Perfumer for 001: Nathalie Koobus.

A floral abundance of radiant orange blossom and lily-of-the-valley, given extra oomph by sultry jasmine sambac. An incredibly holographic progression from dewy green to heady roawr, aided and abetted by musk and guiacwood.

A fresh citrus perfume in which the bergamot aroma at the core is gently wrapped in soft, musky orange blossom and green neroli.

As always, Perris go for the best materials they can source from around the world. For Bergamotto Di Calabria they acquired special “sponge extraction” bergamot oil from Capua. In this region the traditional artisans still perform the extraction manually. Each fruit is sliced in half, the pulp removed, and the rind pressed on a natural sponge in a circular motion to collect the essence. The bergamot rind extract obtained with this method has the most delicate and complex aroma, with a hint of jasmine.

The blend also contains orange blossom absolute from the Italian Capua, Paraguaian petitgrain (the distillation of the twigs from the bitter orange tree), pepper from Timor Island, Moroccan neroli, and Haitian vetiver.

Dilmun is heaven for the ancient people of Mesopotamia, the Garden of the Sun where bushes are laden with buds, where flowering plants climb, and lapis lazuli leaves are mixed with sweet fruits. A sunny, radiant fragrance where notes of Neroli and Orange blossoms develop against a background of Opoponax and Incense, aromatic woods and Vanilla, with green undertones of Laurel leaves.

Explorethe very soul of the orange blossom in Fleur d’Oranger, a singular scent paletteto enchant the senses. Sparkling petitgrain from the bitter orange tree isswathed in a neroli floral accord before unfurling across an orange blossommellowed with musky magnetism.

The orange blossom, symbol of a sweet and gentle way of life, shares itssultry, indescribably delectable freshness in Fleur d’Oranger.

Lacura, the name of this perfume extrait sounds a bit like Latin or some magic language for "protection or cure".

It’s an uplifting nectarous woody citrus formula that has the complete set of wonderful perfume materials from the bitter orange tree: bigarade oil from the fruit, neroli and orange blossom absolute from the bloom and the fresh woody petigrain from leaves and twigs. That citrus and fresh woody plenty is layered with voluminous modern musks (velvety Velutone), gleaming vanilla, caramel and benzoin.

In the times when most people still believed in the magic of scent, orange blossom was considered to be a symbol/good charm for marital harmony and bliss (and often it’s still part of brides’ bouquets) and also an aphrodisiac.

Mendittorosa still believe in perfume magic crafting their blends in the old town of Napoli and Lacura is their recipe for lifting moods and happy dreams.

A moody reinterpretation of Neroli, where time slows and senses gently drift. Bright Moroccan Neroli blossoms entwine with the dark, green attitude of Cannabis Leaf. This duet is sweetened by the warm, honeyed richness of Beeswax Absolute. Zesty Green Mandarin and luxurious Orange Blossom Water float the composition into a sparkling cloud of citrus. Elegant Orris Root gives sophisticated grounding. Drift in a spaced-out summer haze.
