Francesca Bianchi Byzantine Amber - 30 ml

Francesca Bianchi Byzantine Amber is a unisex oriental perfume. Dark and shadowy, glittering with gold, dramatic and decadent: Byzantine Amber is my interpretation of the amber accord. An opening with cinnamon and the pulpiness of geranium develops into an amber base with a dark, animalic and mineral facet. Byzantine amber is an intense and decadent perfume, like a great civilization in the final phase of its splendor. Salome by Gustave Moreau is a painting that can evoke through images the splendor and drama of this olfactory work. The beautiful mosaics of the Byzantine civilisation, like those of Ravenna, have glittering gold tiles, imperfect because worn by time. This sense of theatrical and luminous splendor accompanied by a dark and gloomy side inspired Byzantine Amber. Geranium - pulpy, pink, spicy, slightly green - contrasts with the dry minerality of ambergris and styrax. The backbone of this work is a familiar structure, an amber accord enriched by the spice that makes it sensual: cinnamon. This warm and brilliant accord is obscured by leathery, smoky and animalic aspects, which give intensity and characterize the composition" - The Perfumer for Byzantine Amber | More information Main accords: Amber, Leather, animalistic. | Mood: Dramatic, Hypnotic, Theatrical | Notes: Bergamot, Cinnamon, Geranium, Benzoin, Labdanum, Incense, Leather, Styrax, Ambergris
