"Roxana Illuminated Perfume introduces a curious collection of natural perfume narratives beginning with Figure 1: Noir, a fragrance tailored for those with a passion for patchouli.
From her tool box of cross fertilized artistic disciplines, Roxana illuminates an eccentric curiosity birthed of primordial earth. Figure 1: Noir is an intriguing perfume oddity, deep and resinous with a loamy plume of botanical musk featuring harmonious notes of patchouli, green vetiver, Mysore sandalwood, orris and valerian juxtaposed with the pungent tartness of buchu leaf, black cumin, green cognac and davana. The effect is as intimate and universal as human skin with an unsettling wild animalic shadow."

"A primal, feral animal, searching the blackest night. His fur damp and musky, his paws dirty with earth, dug up roots, and the faint aroma of trodden berries. This is the image that Noir conjured in my mind. Fig. 1: Noir is heavy, earthy, strong and long-lasting. And utterly beautiful. The sweet berry notes that emerge soon after application are subtle, but when under the shadow of this intoxicating patchouli they mingle together so well. This is a true blessing for patchouli lovers."

The fragrances I create are haute couture perfumes, they are completely hand made by me from the world of vital nature, thus the fragrances do not last like synthetic perfumes. A good comparison is the difference between a bouquet of fresh flowers versus one made in a factory with plastics.
The bottle arrives in a wax stamped pillow box with three informational cards.
The synergy for the perfume is made with essential oils, c02 extracts and absolutes. Figure 1: Noir was originally a dark, chocolate perfume I debuted in 2009. Since so many fans requested it as a synergy without the chocolate, here it is! Keep in mind that it will be making an appearance with chocolate again soon.
