L'artisan parfumeur

HEART NOTES: Eucalyptus / BASE NOTES: Damascena Rose / HEAD NOTES: Cashmeran / OLFACTORY FAMILY: Aromatic, Woody / GENDER: Unisex / Entitled 33 for the number of attempts that led to the completion of the winner of Fragrance Foundation’s Best Niche Fragrance 2023, Daphné Bugey’s 7th scent in the collection exists in an abyss that awakens only after dusk. At the heart lies hidden treasures: soothing eucalyptus, soft rose and a smooth, woody scent. An award-winning best-seller, Abyssae blends rose, eucalyptus and cashmeran in an enigmatic floral scent. Discovered in the 1970s, warm, unique and elegant cashmeran is a molecule in a league of its own: tactile as well as olfactory. Like a delicate cashmere brushing against your skin. The scent is of pine, blackberry and apple, with a strong mineral undertone. Discovered in Tasmania (Australia) in 1792 and now mainly produced in Spain and Brazil, eucalyptus is a remarkable tree with fragrant foliage. Its bluish leaves contain an essence with the fresh, invigorating scent of pine, camphor, lemon and honey that is more reminiscent of a winter landscape. Damascena stands for Damascus, the Syrian city home to this rose. Coined the Rose Empire, the Persian Empire, to which Syria belonged, specialised in its cultivation. The essential oil, with its fruity, lychee-like character, and the honeyed, opulent absolute, both have a unique storytelling ability. Daphné Bugey, the perfumer behind Abyssae A French master perfumer with a passion for adventure. As a free spirit, she travels around the world and draws from these incredible journeys a collection of memories that she uses as the source of her overflowing inspiration. I was particularly inspired by the theme of the mysterious, secret flora and fauna that blooms at night, hidden from view. It was a question of transposing this strange and bewitching beauty into fragrances. Daphné Bugey Daphné Bugey, la parfumeuse d'Abyssae Un maître parfumeur français passionné d'aventure. Esprit libre, elle parcourt le monde et puise dans ces voyages incroyables une collection de souvenirs qu'elle utilise comme source d'inspiration débordante.
