Creative Intentions

Ecuador’s highest waterfall, San Rafael, is no more: in 2020, a combination of geological phenomena finally took its millennial flow in the Cayambe Coca reserve. So, to honour its past majesty, we wanted to pay tribute to it through a fragrance bursting with life.

We therefore turned to the fruit of the Palo Santo, a perfectly renewable resource from a tree threatened with extinction due to the excessive use of its wood for ritual fumigation. Sacred in this region and throughout South America, the Palo Santo embodies the spirit of the Amazon, a fertile and massive jungle where man enters into full communion with the living. Thus, despite the gradual fading of San Rafael, this waterfall will forever remain an inexhaustible source of inspiration.

Olfactory Structure

The essence of the Palo Santo fruit carries with it the inordinate richness of a perfume created by nature itself, and the multiple olfactory nuances that our San Rafael Perfume Mist attributes to it are as many scintillating and bewitching facets. A fruity, floral, green, balmy, smoky and woody gust all at once! Solar Ylang oil and Orange Blossom alcoholate join together in a smooth wave that counterbalances the finely pyrogenic accents of Fir Balsam.

The whole is firmly consolidated in the Copal resin, evoking both citrus zest and pine needles. Finally, little by little, the initial complexity turns into an enveloping and reassuring cocoon, imbuing the air with an unalterable woody caress.

MAIN EMOTIONS

Thanks to the joint action of Palo Santo and Copal Santo, Ylang Ylang and Fir Balsam, our San Rafael Home Fragrance promotes concentration while combating your daily fears and anxieties. A must-have spray to help build your confidence or give you the courage to make important decisions.
