The scent of a flower garden. An impressive and refined experience of gracefully blended flowers blooming in a timeless manner in a colourful place. The garden welcomes you with initial impressions of fresh citrus fruits and rich ylang-ylang. Bulgarian rose absolute softens the exuberant dose of white flower absolutes: sensual jasmine, voluptuous tuberose and erotic orange blossom. The exuberant blend of these natural absolutes results in a rich and dynamic floral perfume. The base is rich, with creamy patchouli and amber notes that combine with sweet and soft woods. Golestan references seductive classics, yet remains an uncompromisingly modern and original perfume.
Inspiration
‘It all began when I visited the Louvre in Paris in 2020. I stumbled upon a section I had never visited before, even though I had been to the Louvre a few times. The section was about Persian empires and history. It was a revelation!
I was fascinated by the splendour, the statues and the cultural heritage spanning more than 5,000 years. I began to discover more, read books and eventually discovered the palace called Golestan in Tehran in pictures. The palace, also known as the Rose Garden Palace and built in the 16th century, with its ornamental and figurative paintings on tiles, was pure inspiration. Golestan literally means city of flowers or garden of flowers.
Although I have not yet been able to travel to Iran, I have created a perfume that takes me there. It is an invitation to breathe in the fragrant air of a flower garden in freedom.’
