Moroccan Medjool by Marco Genovese

"A bountiful harvest of exquisite and honeyed Medjool dates, with the golden warmth of the oasis."

Tempting, voluptuous, golden

Moroccan Medjool is a sumptuous fruity amber that combines the caramel sweetness of dates with the golden warmth of the desert.

The scent opens with bright and fruity notes, with a dewy citrus freshness setting a scene of sunrise over the oasis. A tempting platter of dates is surrounded by a profusion of rose and jasmine petals, the floral emblems of Morocco. The mineral warmth of cashmeran and ambergris evoke the arid heat of the desert air, providing a counterpoint to candied notes of vanilla and caramel – which carry the honeyed character of dates long into the rich amber base.

 

INSPIRATION

The third instalment in the Explorer collection, Moroccan Medjool is a tribute to the delicious dates the Romans encountered in Mauretania. Dates were among one of Morocco’s most treasured exports to the Romans, and were an important commodity in establishing long-lasting connections between Morocco and the broader Mediterranean world. With Moroccan Medjool, we pay homage to dates and the oasis habitat where they grow in abundance.
