The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2016 by Olfactive Studio, Still Life in Rio was crafted by perfumer Dora Baghriche. This composition opens with a vibrant burst of yuzu and lemon, punctuated by the freshness of ginger and mint. The heart adds layers of coconut milk and rum, creating an unexpected sweetness that contrasts with the spiciness of black and pink pepper. The base notes of copaiba balm and leather offer a grounding warmth, pulling together the bright top and middle accords into a harmonious whole.
Apply one or two sprays — the yuzu and lemon top notes are bright and fleeting, while the coconut milk and spicy heart notes take center stage. The leather base adds depth as it settles in, making this fragrance ideal for a warm evening out.
