Marrakesh, known as the Pearl of the South, is the inspiration behind Casbah by Robert Piguet. Famous for its multitude of architectural treasures and legendary gardens, which earned the old town of Marrakesh a place on the UNESCO World Heritage List, history is everywhere you look. Casbah brings this history to life with all its fascinating fragrant ingredients.
The proud sharpness of black pepper and the spicy tartness of fresh nutmeg lead to Angelica, also known as angelica root – dark green, iridescent and aromatic, forming the overture. The heart of the fragrance is characterized by precious iris with a cool, earthy, and gently powdery character, skillfully accentuated by tobacco leaves and enveloped in a soft mist of incense. Clean, woody cedar completes the composition in combination with salty vetiver grass.
The image of a venerable city full of life: the warmth of the Orient, the colourful hustle and bustle in the streets and souks, where snake charmers, jugglers, spice traders and storytellers can still be admired today, as well as oases of tranquillity in exotic gardens, are served up by Casbah on a fragrant silver platter. A modern oriental fragrance that fires the imagination.
