THE ORIGINAL MOMENT

When the walls keep out the sun

"I imagined it at the end of the day, when the air begins to cool and the walls still retain the warmth of the sun. We linger outside. We postpone the moment of going inside a little longer."

Zakaria MIRA

Dulce de Andalucía begins with this moment: an Andalusian courtyard, the fading light, the still-warm stone. The fragrance holds both sensations together, the warmth of the day and the coolness of the evening.

First
stopover

It all started with a trip to Barcelona. I came back with the desire to compose music inspired by Spain, using my Moroccan roots as a starting point. Passion Ibérica was born from this desire.

For his first creation, I turned to Andalusia. I imagined it at the end of the day, when the air begins to cool and the walls still retain the warmth of the sun. We linger outside. We postpone the moment of going inside.

I sought this sensation in Dulce de Andalucía. The cherry initially has a touch of acidity that almost makes your mouth water. It then rounds out, like a candied fruit. The orange blossom brings a familiar sweetness, a link to Morocco at the heart of this imagined Spain. Then the woods give the fragrance a gentle warmth, close to the skin.

WHAT WE FEEL

A cherry, a flower, a wood

The cherry

Between acidity and candied sweetness

A cherry that's slightly tart, like freshly picked fruit, then rounds out into a candied sweetness. The acidity balances the sugar and keeps the fruit vibrant.

Orange blossom

A floral tenderness, at the center

It lies at the heart of the fragrance and connects the other two facets. Its tenderness softens the cherry's acidity and leads to the wood. It's the familiar and sweet note of patios planted with orange trees.

The wooded background

The remaining heat

A warm wood, like wood paneling that has retained the day's sunlight. An aldehydic facet runs through it, clean and airy, reminiscent of the evening's cool air. This contrast gives the fragrance its character.
