The Story

Soul of Bali, created by perfumer David Chieze and launched in 2025 by Swiss Arabian, is an aromatic woody-spicy fragrance that captures the essence of a vibrant island paradise. The composition opens with rhubarb and bergamot, followed by ginger and pink pepper, creating a bright and invigorating freshness. As it develops, pineapple and mango bring a tropical fruitiness, while saffron and cardamom add warmth and depth. At its heart, palisander rosewood and olibanum create a rich woody aroma, which is further enhanced by nutmeg and sandalwood in the base notes. The fragrance concludes with ambergris, musk, and cypriol, leaving behind an enveloping and warm trail.

Application Tips

Apply Soul of Bali in light layers for a balanced effect. The top notes are bright and may fade quickly, but the base notes will linger throughout the day. It is best worn during warmer months when its tropical warmth can be fully appreciated.

The story behind the bottle.

The crisp morning air on a tropical beach, where the sun begins to rise over the ocean, infusing every breath with a blend of fresh citrus and warm spices.
