Cacao Aztèque – Extrait de Parfum

Perris Monte Carlo CACAO AZTÈQUE Extrait de Parfum 

The Black Collection by Perris Monte Carlo pays homage to the most precious raw materials in perfumery, showcasing their richness and complexity through six Extrait de Parfums of unparalleled concentration and quality. With a meticulous focus on raw materials, these extracts reveal nuances that were previously overlooked, offering a harmonious and captivating olfactory experience.

Among these exquisite fragrances is Xocolatl, a tribute to the ancient tradition of cocoa and its revered status as the "drink of the gods". Drawing inspiration from the mysticism and richness of Aztec culture, Xocolatl weaves together a tapestry of scents reminiscent of the forest, the desert and the indulgent allure of divine elixirs. At its heart lies pure cocoa bean essential oil, evoking the essence of chocolate in its most primal form. Pepper and cardamom add a subtle spice, while sandalwood brings depth and warmth. Tuberose and orchid lend a floral elegance, creating a fragrance that is both intoxicating and enigmatic.

The result is a powerful and mesmerizing extract that transcends the boundaries of scent, captivating the senses and evoking a sense of wonder and reverence. Xocolatl is more than just a fragrance; it is a manifestation of a lost spell, a dream brought to life through the alchemy of scent. It serves as a testament to the spiritual heritage of cocoa and its role as a divine gift from nature, inviting us to embark on a journey of discovery and enchantment.

The fragrance CACAO AZTÈQUE – Perris Monte Carlo was created by Mathieu Nardin.

Mathieu Nardin's journey into the world of perfumery began in the picturesque fields of Grasse, where he was immersed in the fragrant world of flowers from a young age. As the grandson of growers of rose, jasmine and verbena, he developed his olfactory senses through these aromatic plants, laying the foundation for his lifelong passion.

For Mathieu, the path to becoming a perfumer was clear from the start. Following his natural inclination, he pursued a master's degree in perfumery at ISIPCA, a renowned institution in the field. After completing his education, he embarked on his professional career at Robertet in 2009, where he honed his skills in crafting exquisite fragrances. His journey took him from Grasse to New York in 2013, where he continued to make his mark in the world of perfumery. Throughout his career, Mathieu has remained deeply connected to the raw materials that form the essence of perfumery. His upbringing instilled in him a profound love for flowers, citrus fruits and natural woods, which continues to inspire his creative process. He approaches each fragrance with a reverence for the ingredients, allowing them to guide his compositions and infuse them with authenticity and depth.

Mathieu's innovative spirit and dedication to his craft have earned him recognition as a member of a new generation of perfumers. His creations, such as Jacquard for Etro, Iris de Champs for Houbigant and Blue for Kenneth Cole, showcase his ability to blend traditional techniques with modern innovation, resulting in fragrances that are both timeless and contemporary.

Today, Mathieu Nardin continues to tell his stories through perfume, captivating the senses and evoking emotions with each carefully crafted scent.
