☥ ☥ ☥ ☥ Perfumer's Notes:
"In the souk of an Egyptian bazaar at Luxor, I sipped on a dark roasted Egyptian coffee and stared out into the metal stars and lamps that crowded the pathway above the tourists that stood staring and holding trinkets of animal deity and small pyramids.  I watched as the Egyptian vendors sifted through spice and put their red-stained hands up to noses of anyone that passed by even momentarily interested in their wares.  The coffee and the scent of cardamom filled my nose.  Nearby a flower stand sold wilted carnations that added a depth of surreal to the coffee and spice.  In my mind the scent of aged cedar from visited tombs felt right for a blend as well as adding a little of smoked earthly vetiver.  This would be a scent I needed to create but to my nose it was poisonous scent that would haunt me back to my home until I could gather the right coffee notes, the right carnation equations, the perfect exotic woods and blend slowly into the sweet amber tenuousness of saphir.  This, for me, is a moment I could not find again except for what was written in my journal that day sipping my coffee.  I went back to the souk a few more times but the floral vendor had gone, and the coffee wasn’t as fresh that day, it wasn't as humid and the spices didn't overflow down the long pathways of the souk.  That magic was no longer there sitting to be inhaled and peered into.  This is that moment caught as a canvas can take paint to become something more than it was before.  This is that moment I can find whenever I reach for it, and I hope you are one of the few that can experience this magical and strange scent of memory and of an Egyptian bazaar and all the elements within that moment.” ~Emerson Hart, eNVie Perfumer Composer
