The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Isabel Gil Trujillo crafted ESSENCE OF CASABLANCA for Swiss Arabian in 2023, blending the vibrant sweetness of fruits with the rich warmth of vanilla and amber. The fragrance opens with a burst of fresh grapes and apple, creating an initial sense of crispness and vitality. As it settles, orris and patchouli add depth, grounding the composition with their earthy tones. The base notes of vanilla, musk, and balsamic notes create a cocooning warmth that is both comforting and inviting.

How to wear it

Apply ESSENCE OF CASABLANCA with a light hand to allow its vibrant top notes to shine initially. As it settles into the warmer base notes, it will provide a lasting sense of comfort throughout the day. Best experienced close to skin for an intimate warmth.
