Reine Makeda Parfum Intense

Queen of Sheba Reine Makeda Parfum Intense.

Queen Makeda is an elegant and luminous fragrance that embodies the bold and majestic spirit of a legendary queen. From the very first notes, the vibrant freshness of mandarin intertwines with the musky sensuality of ambergris and the slightly green, leathery character of violet leaf, creating a sophisticated and distinctive opening.

At the heart, a noble floral bouquet unfolds in all its richness: iris lends a velvety, refined texture, whilst rose and jasmine add warmth, femininity and opulence. The fragrance evolves into an enveloping base of woods and soft notes, where cedar, vanilla, cashmere and musk build a deep, elegant and captivating trail, conveying freedom, sophistication and character.

In the perfumer’s own words

“This project gave me the opportunity to immerse myself in the world of the Queen of Sheba, which I first learnt about through an exhibition at the Arab World Institute. It was a world of astonishing olfactory sensitivity, spices, herbs and incense—a place we dream of visiting.”
