Soul of My Soul is a deeply evocative fragrance that transcends the ordinary, capturing the essence of love, connection, and the divine. Inspired by the phrase from the One Thousand and One Nights, "soul of my soul" speaks to the emptiness of life without love, a sentiment that runs through the fabric of this perfume. Just as Aladdin called out to Badroulboudour, this fragrance whispers of an eternal bond, an invisible presence that links us to the divine, much like a trail of perfume lingering in the air.
The perfume opens with a bright and mystical blend of Bergamot from Italy, incense essence from Somalia, and the subtle spice of pink peppercorn. These top notes evoke a sense of sacred offerings, like an invocation to the gods of Persia, India, and Mesopotamia, honoring the ancient rituals with smoke and fire.
In the heart of Soul of My Soul, a luxurious and creamy accord of iris butter unfolds, blending seamlessly with rose absolute and a rich, warm suede accord. This combination speaks to the sensuality that is intertwined with the soul—an embrace that infuses a drop of cosmic soul into the body, creating a connection that lingers long after the moment passes.
The base notes are where this fragrance truly reveals its depth. The grounding warmth of sandalwood essence from Australia and the woody richness of Georgy wood intertwine with the sweet, comforting presence of vanilla absolute from Madagascar. Together, they form a creamy, balsamic finish, like the soft friction of tonka against benzoin, leaving behind a lasting, soulful imprint.
