Signature Collection - Tears on Mystic Sands – Eau de Parfum

MYSTIKUM - TEARS ON MYSTIC SANDS - Eau de Parfum  

Immerse yourself in the infinite desert, where the scent of the wind and the dunes evoke a timeless wanderlust. An elixir of tears, cried by a love that transcends the boundaries of time and space.

The TEARS ON MYSTIC SANDS fragrance forges a bond as if souls were communicating across centuries: The resinous, passion-drenched heart of oud combines with the sweet innocence of vanilla to form an immortal bond.

Delicate citrus notes unfold like a fine veil, revealing chords of lychee, mandarin and bergamot. In the base, hints of sandalwood, musk and leather whisper of forbidden passions awakened by the touch of a lover. At the same time, a young rose blossoms at the heart of TEARS ON MYSTIC SANDS, entwined with freesia, iris and a hint of incense, evoking the image of a sensual grove of flowers.

Let the ethereal notes of TEARS ON MYSTIC SANDS transport you to a world where the desire of the heart is as great as the desert. Where tears shed in solitude are the tender sacrifices of a love that transcends time.

TEARS ON MYSTIC SANDS by Mystikum is a fragrance from the Floral - Oriental fragrance family.

The perfumer of the fragrance TEARS ON MYSTIC SANDS by MYSTIKUM is Mark Buxton

Mark Buxton is a renowned perfumer, known for his creative, modern, often avant-garde fragrance compositions. He is a visionary artist in the world of niche perfumery and has created numerous iconic fragrances for luxury and niche brands.

Mark Buxton was born in England in 1964 but grew up in Germany. His passion for perfumery led him to France, where he trained in Grasse, the world centre of perfumery. In the early 1990s, Buxton began his career as a perfumer and quickly gained recognition for his ability to create unusual and daring compositions. Mark Buxton is known for his minimalist but refined style. His fragrances are unmistakable:

Often combining seemingly contradictory elements to achieve unexpected and harmonious results. Focus on raw materials: He loves high-quality, natural ingredients and uses them to create clear, expressive creations. Innovative compositions: He experiments with modern and avant-garde ideas. He harmonises these with the classic art of perfumery. Mark Buxton has worked for a variety of luxury and niche brands, including Comme des Garçons. For Comme des Garçons, Buxton has created some of the most iconic fragrances:

Comme des Garçons Eau de Parfum (1994) - a woody, spicy fragrance that revolutionised the world of perfumery.

Etat Libre d'Orange: Buxton contributed to the provocative collection of this brand, which is known for its unconventional fragrances.
In 2008, Buxton founded his own brand, Mark Buxton Perfumes, to give free rein to his vision.

Mark Buxton has a remarkable connection to the famous German television programme ‘Wetten, dass...?’, which took place in the 1980s. Back then, Buxton appeared on the show with a friend and bet that they could recognise 600 different perfumes by scent alone. This unusual bet impressed the audience and brought Buxton a lot of attention.

Taking part in the programme was not only an exciting experience, but also marked a turning point in his life. His ability to identify fragrances so precisely aroused the interest of the perfumery industry. As a result, he was given the opportunity to complete an internship at Haarmann & Reimer (now part of Symrise). This laid the foundation for his career as a perfumer.
