Simone Andreoli - Smoke of Desert (formerly God)
Night time journey in the Oman desert, chosen land for the production of the most prestigious incense in the world. An extraordinary resin down from the ancient times to communicate and to pay tribute to gods. Smoke of God is the celebration of the most exclusive and pure incense enriched by absinth and cashmere notes.
Diary of the perfume:
I lost every touch with reality to enter the middle of nowhere and abandon myself to the desert law. An unwritten rule, an unexpressed code that impose a vision; looking inward.
Nothing exists here, nothing happens.
Sunsets reflected in my iris talk, but they wait for the darkness to reveal their meaning. The night is poetry of the dark, guardian of drifted thoughts and words with God.
Simone Andreoli
Simone Andreoli is a name that defines olfactory compositions with memories of distant lands, imprinting reflections of a travel journal into every perfume, like the canvas of a painter or the stave of a musician.
The Journal tells of the constant wandering through the streets of the world which become individual areas, where olfaction becomes history, memory and emotion. Its pages talk to us and, together with scents, guide us into our inner archive, leading us everywhere and to every place; sensory experience extends beyond skin and becomes a travelling depiction of distances and remote corners.
Perfume is the principal character, the narrator of stories that weave between written words and reminiscences thawed into a companionship of scents, where matter blends to lead us back to that forgotten beach or to the traffic of Wall Street.
Travel is no longer simply a path to a place, but, rather, introspection, quest and knowledge. So we sail blown by perfume to the most difficult and mysterious journey of all: the discovery of your inner self.
