"The silent magic of the desert"
Spring. A few years ago. Karlsruhe. A city known not only for its baroque architecture, but also for its hidden treasures. It was during a visit there that I came across the Florascent manufactory, a place where craftsmanship and olfactory creativity come together. In this workshop, reminiscent of an alchemist's workshop, perfumer Roland Tentunian works on his fragrances with dedication and passion. Among the bottles and test tubes, I found a fragrance that immediately fascinated me: Quarzazate. The name evoked memories of the majestic expanses of the Moroccan desert, and when I wore it on my skin for the first time, I knew I had found something very special.
Quarzazate is a tribute to the cool, mystical atmosphere of the desert. Roland Tentunian, the creative mind behind Florascent, produces each of his fragrances with precision craftsmanship and attention to detail in his manufactory in Karlsruhe. This is where not only the perfumes are created, but also the artistic packaging, which bears the signature of a master craftsman. Quarzazate is the epitome of this philosophy - a fragrance that carries the cool purity and spiritual depth of the desert.
"In the breath of the desert you can feel the heartbeat of silence." The opening of Quarzazate is a whiff of incense that immediately captivates the senses. It is no ordinary incense, but a cool, ethereal incense that evokes the clarity and freshness of the morning, when the first rays of sunlight penetrate the cool air. This note lends the fragrance a spiritual dimension, evoking thoughts of silent prayers in old monasteries and the gentle flickering of candlelight. The incense is accompanied by the fresh note of cypress, which acts like a cool breeze in the desert and gives the fragrance a green, almost invigorating freshness.
As the top note slowly recedes, the heart of Quarzazate unfolds. A harmonious combination of mint, allspice and saffron comes to the fore. The mint brings a cool, invigorating freshness that is reminiscent of the wind blowing through the desert. The allspice adds a subtle spiciness, while the saffron brings a warm, slightly spicy note reminiscent of oriental markets. This interplay gives the fragrance a complexity that evokes the mysterious beauty of the desert.
The base note of Quarzazate, consisting of resinous notes and vetiver, anchors the fragrance in an earthy depth. These resinous accords evoke the scent of dry earth and sand, mixed with the smoky aroma of a campfire burning in the distance. The vetiver adds a woody, earthy note that gives the fragrance a calming permanence. Together, these notes create a fragrance experience that carries the silence and vastness of the desert, the serenity and eternity of nature.
Quarzazate is a fragrance that has been with me for years and never ceases to amaze me. At a price of 51 euros for 30 ml, this fragrance is a real gem that anyone who wants to experience the magic of the desert can afford. With Quarzazate, Roland Tentunian has created a fragrance that captivates with its cool clarity and spiritual depth. A fragrance for those who seek tranquillity, who enjoy the silence and feel the wisdom of the desert within them.
"The quiet magic of the desert - a fragrance that touches the soul and transports the senses to distant worlds."
