1001 Extrait de Parfum is a celebration of the power of words, inspired by the timeless allure of Sherazade from The Arabian Nights. Much like her enchanting tales that captivated listeners and transformed hearts, this unisex oriental fragrance evokes the rich atmosphere of the East, where aromas, colors, and flavors come together in an unforgettable symphony.
The fragrance opens with a vibrant and spicy mix of bergamot, red tea, ginger, and pink pepper, blended with the resinous warmth of elemi. These top notes create an immediate sense of intrigue, like the opening lines of a captivating story that beckons you deeper into its world. The red tea and ginger bring warmth and zest, reflecting Sherazade's patience and optimism as she spun her nightly tales to save her life.
At the heart, papyrus, an ancient writing material, is paired with the sensual richness of Turkish rose, jasmine, saffron, and the earthy depth of curcuma (turmeric). This combination represents the delicate balance between strength and allure, mirroring Sherazade’s wisdom and seductive storytelling. The floral and spicy notes entwine to form a complex and enveloping bouquet that evokes the atmosphere of an exotic bazaar, full of mystery and enchantment.
As the fragrance unfolds, it reveals a warm and grounding base of patchouli, sandalwood, ambergris, vanilla, and musk. This deep, leathery accord pays homage to the leather "capse" that once protected ancient papyruses—symbolizing the enduring nature of stories preserved across time. The blend of patchouli and ambergris lends the scent a lingering, sultry finish, much like the lasting impact of a story well-told.
