ABOUT THIS SCENT

Basalte is a bold, captivating fragrance, drawing inspiration from the volcanic origins of Rodrigues Island. Like the island itself, Basalte is shaped by the raw power of nature, a convergence of earth and ocean, where rugged gray stone stands as a steadfast barrier against the relentless forces of the sea.

The fragrance opens with an eruption of spicy notes—vibrant Cardamom and exotic Timur Pepper. This fiery start is tempered by the comforting warmth of Fig, Plum, and rich Tea, creating an elegant contrast that reflects the island’s duality: a place both fierce and inviting. The deep, earthy Vetiver Bourbon adds a grounding touch, connecting the scent to the fertile soil tended by Rodrigues’ planters.

A fragrance of opposition, Basalte represents the enduring resilience of Rodrigues Island. Join us in celebrating the strength of the earth and the spirit of this Island, where nature’s forces collide and create something truly exceptional. Basalte reflects the authentic joy de vivre of the island’s inhabitants.

PERFUMER

GINO PERCONTINO

"Rodrigues Island is of volcanic origin; the touches of Basalte are numerous, an immutable force of gray stone that stands in opposition and acts as a barrier to the power of the Ocean. For Basalte, we chose a note of warmth and energy, emphasizing rich spices and raw wood notes. At its heart, the fragrance unfolds with the warmth of Cardamom and the rich sweetness of Fig, blended seamlessly with the refreshing crispness of Tea. The base is anchored with the deep, earthy tones of Vétiver Bourbon, adding a layer of elegance and sophistication. This composition is gently brightened at the top by the fresh zest of Limon de Rodrigues, infusing a vibrant energy and providing a striking contrast. This blend of notes creates Basalte – a Voyage à Rodrigue fragrance that is uniquely captivating and authentically refreshing."
