This fragrance is a tribute to the beauty of Madagascan vanilla — one of the finest vanillas in the world. Mafonja means “intense” (as in power or strength) in Malagasy.

It opens with a breath of fleur de sel, evoking salt-kissed skin. A soft heat follows, as cinnamon, pink pepper (Mauritius), and nutmeg wrap the senses in warmth. Ylang-ylang (Comoros) lends a creamy, luminous floral note. As the scent deepens, a darker story unfolds: resinous myrrh (Somalia) and olibanum (Somalia) melt into dark amber.


Réserve en Afrique eaux de parfum feature responsibly sourced naturals, and are free from parabens, phthalates, UV filters and colorants. Their natural alcohol base is derived from beetroots, and they are a PETA-listed vegan & cruelty-free brand.

Kajal III, with its burst of ginger and citrus anchored by cleansing lavender and enfolding amber, has been created to honor all forms of determination and fortitude.

About Purple Mantra by Room 1015

How does Purple Mantra compare to the fragrances listed here?
Purple Mantra combines aromatic lavender and clary sage with spicy pink pepper, floral notes, and a resinous, smoky base of incense and myrrh. The fragrances listed share some of these elements but vary in balance, with some emphasising fresh herbal notes, others smoky resins or powdery florals. None replicate the exact complexity of Purple Mantra but offer related aromatic profiles.
What should I look for if I want a scent with a similar smoky incense note?
Fragrances like Berbera, Vanille Mafonja, 702 Encens Privé, and ARA(GON) highlight incense prominently, often combined with myrrh or resinous spices. These options focus more on smoky and resinous qualities than fresh or floral notes.
Which fragrances here are the freshest in character?
Provence, Seychelles Breeze, Oblivion, and Lavande lean towards fresh and clean aromatic profiles. They incorporate notes like lavender, freesia, or green grass and generally lack the deeper smoky or sweet elements found in Purple Mantra.
