Raphael - Extrait de Parfum
Spirit of quiet presence—an intimate composition of understated materials that settles upon the skin like the echo of a cherished memory. Soft in its voice yet profound in its character, it reveals itself slowly, unfolding with grace, warmth, and quiet depth.
It opens with the gentle radiance of cardamom essence, pink pepper extract, and rhubarb, where delicate spice meets a subtle, luminous freshness. At its heart, nutmeg essence entwines with magnolia, honeysuckle, and iris, blooming into a tender floral embrace softened by an elegant earthiness. As the hours pass, Haitian vetiver, vanilla, white musks, Atlas and Virginia cedarwood, cashmeran, patchouli essence, and ambroxan settle into the skin, leaving a trail that is warm, comforting, and deeply intimate—like the memory of a touch that lingers long after it has faded.
Raphael belongs to no single season, place, or moment. It drifts quietly through the rhythm of a life well lived—through first light and fading dusk, chance encounters and lasting devotion, moments of solitude and shared silence. It is less a fragrance than a feeling: a gentle companion to time itself, leaving behind not an impression, but a remembrance.

SORA DORA
In honor of Antoine Soradora, a Portuguese immigrant who found his home in France, the family’s eponymous brand, now in its fourth generation, weaves together scents that echo the memories of a life well-lived. The wild lavender lining the roads of his youth, the mingling of earth and water, the rush of springs at the forest’s edge, the peat, the hay, the freshly cut grass, the flowers, and the fruit—all these shaped Antoine's vision. Later, in the South of France, his cherished garden, his beloved wife, their children, and the jasmine fields where he labored became the wellspring of inspiration for his singular and breathtaking fragrance creations.
