Parfums de Marly's fragrance creation ""Safanad"" pays tribute to the noble thoroughbred Arabian horse. Legend has it that the mare Safanad - the name means ""the pure one"" - was a gift from the Queen of Sheba to the wise King Solomon. Like a royal gift, the top notes shimmer with a ripe pear surrounded by both orange blossom and orange fruit. Finally, the floral components assert themselves - powdery iris and sweet, balsamic ylang-ylang take over the blooming regency. The finely balanced fruity and floral notes are bedded on a carefully crafted base of ambergris, sandalwood and vanilla. The finely defined forms and regal elegance of Arabian horses, as well as the dignity and legendary beauty of the Queen of Sheba, are reflected in ""Safanad"" by Parfums de Marly. A thoroughly feminine composition with classic and modern touches at the same time.Top notes: orange, bitter orange essence, pearHeart notes: orange blossom, jasmine sambac absolute, ylang-ylangBase notes: sandalwood, vanill
