Cristian Cavagna - Musa Paradisiaca
Based on the imperial greenhouses of Art Nouveau, Musa Paradisiaca combines exquisite floral sounds and tropical greenery under an elegantly soaring glass dome. Cristian Cavagna's composition is a contemporary interpretation of a classic motif - in its decoratively curved lines, art and nature merge to create a sensually beguiling olfactory melange.
The fragrance:
The rich, leathery green of bouncy banana leaves alongside the floral elegance of a tuberose defines Musa Paradisiaca's opening. Spiced with ginger notes bursting with vitality and fine celery notes, they create a lively picture of artfully intertwined natural elements. At the heart of his creation, Cavagna revisits the tuberose as the central sound, surrounds it with narcissus and sweet ylang ylang and lets its intense melody work its way into the base of Musa Paradisiaca. Sensual, gourmand sounds carry the fragrance. Cocoa, vanilla and lovely tonka bean, luminous amber, sandalwood and attractive civet nuances fill Cavagna's composition with a nostalgic flair, but with an unexpectedly modern twist. Dedicated to absolute aesthetics, Musa Paradisiaca is clothed in a graceful flacon. Its golden emblem is adorned with the fragrance's name and the delicate blossom of the ubiquitous tuberose. Crowned with a gracefully crafted golden cap, it creates the image of an artfully composed, well-formed treasure.
