La Réunion, a spectacular island far removed from the clichés of a tropical island, this island deserves to be explored...
Frequent eruptions emit thick dark smoke, but the earth remains calm. Endless roots prevent destructive tremors.
Lunar and volcanic, the contrast is all the more intriguing as you discover the magnificence of the waterfalls and the green, endless jungle. A blend of pimento, enveloped in softness and warmth... sumptuously named Bourbon, its opulence is intoxicating and breathtaking...
‘Ombre Fumée’ is an ode to vetiver. This raw material is the wealth of the island of Réunion. Vetiver is enveloped in dark, mysterious and sensual notes, but also in green and fresh ones to characterise the ambivalence of the flora.
The top note is an explosion of citrus fruits. Orange and lemon open this fragrance with clear and refreshing notes. This fresh side is quickly followed by the aromatic softness of cypress. Then the powdery note of iris combined with black pepper emerges, warm and crackling.
The vetiver now becomes dark. The bitter blackness of tonka bean is sensually tamed by grey ambergris and the animalistic, deerskin accord.
The bottle
The bronze-coloured bottles reveal the nectar of each creation. The caps are metallised in the same rich and opulent colour scheme. The golden label celebrates the quintessence of luxurious and precious raw materials. The packaging echoes these characteristics and envelops all the secrets of this fragrance composition.
Collection d'Ailleurs
The Collection d'Ailleurs opens a new chapter in the history of Evody. It pays homage to the riches of nature and the diversity of cultures. With the fragrances of the Collection d'Ailleurs, the designers offer us their interpretation of faraway places.
These fragrance compositions were born out of the passions of the mother-daughter duo Régine and Cérine: travel and, of course, perfume.
Since childhood, Régine has travelled to foreign places through books. Places she longed to visit, which she later discovered with her young daughter Cérine... The feelings and wonder she experienced during their travels inspired her to continue this adventure through fragrances. ‘To travel is to give meaning to one's life, to give life to one's senses.’ Alexandre Poussin
The first perfumes in the Collection d'Ailleurs open up worlds that take us from the Orient to the Occident.
