Product description
“When I received the first samples of the fragrance that would later become Nektar, I was enchanted by its personality and the quality of its composition. Full of softness and creativity, Nektar is reminiscent of honey without being overwhelming, while gaining a clear character from its intense notes. Working with Pierre was a real pleasure. In a short time, we created a perfume that does not go unnoticed, now available in our flagship stores and authorized retailers worldwide.”
–Roberto Drago, founder and creative director of Laboratorio Olfattivo.
The foundation for the perfume was born during a trip to Wadi Darbat in southern Oman, a place that is markedly different from the image we often have of the region. Here, the Indian monsoon winds meet, creating a landscape rich in greenery, water and botanical variety. Among rivers and tall trees grows the Sidr tree – an ancient tree from the Ziziphus genus, known for its red fruits and unusually aromatic flowers.
It is these very flowers that give rise to the rare and sought-after Yemen Sidr honey , produced by local bees. During my stay, together with a botanist and an incense grower, the idea for Nektar grew: a fragrance that interprets the many nuances of honey and reflects the rich nature that surrounds its origin.
Nektar is described as oriental and amber-woody with a sweet-fruity note, where the honey aspect is balanced by spicy, leathery and woody notes. It is experienced as warm and full-bodied, with gourmand notes that make it both rich and inviting.
