"Al Rihla" means "the journey" in Arabic and reflects the idea behind the composition: an olfactory journey that combines different cultures and landscapes - from the flower gardens and orchards of Europe to the warm, spicy scents of the Middle East.

The top note opens with a fresh, green-floral combination: Galbanum, iris, lily of the valley and orange blossom meet the velvety-sweet note of plum. The heart is dominated by opulent blossoms - rose, tuberose, ylang-ylang and osmanthus - accompanied by fruity mango notes and the resinous warmth of labdanum. The base adds depth and warmth to the composition: Cambodian oud, saffron, patchouli, vanilla, tonka bean and creamy sandalwood blend with sweet notes of honey and date. Vetiver adds earthy accents and rounds off the fragrance journey.

The fragrance was created by Arturetto Landi, an internationally active master perfumer. His love for the fragrance culture of the Middle East is reflected in many of his works - in particular through the use of high-quality, local raw materials.
