Berbera eau de parfum - 100 ml

With the fragrance Berbera, Nissaba showcases the Horn of Africa through its iconic ingredients: incense, myrrh and opoponax gums. Berbera is Somaliland's main port, linking the Somali desert to the outside world. It's a place filled with two primary colours: the deep blue of the ocean and the sandy tones of the incessant winds and storms that blow across the country. The entire harvest of these gums ends up in the port city of Berbera, from where they leave for extraction, then finally reach the laboratories of the great perfumery houses, in Paris, Grasse or New York.  

• An amber woody incense with the finest gums extracts from Somaliland.
• Incense, myrrh and opoponax gums, the world's oldest perfumery ingredients.
• Top notes: A superfluid extract of spicy incense meets resinous elemi and a duo of nutmeg and black pepper essences.
• Heart notes: Leathery, powdery incense enhances warm myrrh.
• Base note: pyrogenic incense gums with amber facets enrich a superfluid extract of Somali opoponax.
• Perfumer Fabrice Pellegrin: Berbera inspires me to travel, but it also inspires me to be mysterious. And what inspires me most is the verticality of the fragrance. The backbone is built around the incense at every level, the head, the heart and the base. We used the same quality of incense but extracted it in different ways. The combination of these three incenses creates the verticality of the juice, and the common thread running through the fragrance. This combination with myrrh and opoponax will give this incense a balsamic effect, adding depth and a little more mystery. Illustrating this Horn of Africa through ingredients, magnifying these ingredients, for me it was an extraordinary playground. And I hope that when you smell this fragrance, you'll enjoy it as much as I enjoyed creating it.
