A Corsican maquis aromatic with an imperial sillage
This “glorious water” opens with sparkling tangerine and bergamot top notes, enhanced by the bracing aromas of myrtle and rosemary. Then, the volatile smells of the Corsican maquis assert themselves with immortelle, cistus and oakmoss, suffused with incense.
Universe - Eau de Gloire
It isn’t a picture of their island that exiled Corsican exiles carry in their hearts and minds, but the vivid smell of the maquis. “Eyes closed, in the darkest night, if by some miracle I were transported to Corsica, I would recognize it immediately by its smell”, once wrote a young student at the military academy of Brienne, then known as Buonaparte…
EAU DE GLOIRE is Marc-Antoine Corticchiato’s tribute to the Corsicans who left their village to conquer the world, like his father who settled in Morocco to plant citrus groves, or their most famous fellow countryman, Napoleon Bonaparte.
The scent opens with a refreshing burst of citrus (tangerine and bergamot), bolstered with wild lentiscus, myrtle and rosemary, and softened by suave neroli. The warm smells of the maquis assert themselves in the base notes, with immortelle, cistus and oakmoss, blended with incense tears.
For empire builders who have forgotten neither their origins nor those who stayed behind… and who carry their island’s immortal scent with them wherever they go.
