Theme N°29 : Hesperimental
A new theme, experimentation on hesperides
ITABAÏA renews the “hesperidic” genre in our collection. This “Hesperidic Heat”, where the fresh and fruity notes barely conceal the wisps of an illicit spliff, has a neo-chypre air thanks to an accord of Hemp and Vanilla.
THE NAME
Invented by the perfumer, of an undetermined kind. An elegant and mysterious word, it borrows exotic sounds evoking Brazil, dance, a divinity…
THE INSPIRATION
For this new Opus, inaugurating the theme 29 “Hesperimental” Pierre GUILLAUME was inspired by the strength and energy associated with Capoeira, this Afro-Brazilian art combining dance and wrestling. On the Brazilian beach of Itacaré, dance warriors perform an acrobatic and solar ballet to the rhythm of berimbau and feverish songs, dazzling the spectator with power, grace and harmony.
THE TECHNIQUE
Like the sand dispersed in the wind by the acrobatic movements of the Capoeira dancers at sunset, ITABAÏA is a “hesperidic heat wave” colored with vanilla and hemp. Its floral-fruity heart releases the green powdery scrolls of Jurema Flower tinged with a hint of Maracuja
