Atelier Materi - Narcisse Taiji – Eau de Parfum

Atelier Materi NARCISSE TAIJI Eau de Parfum

The Duality of Narcissus – A Dance of Light and Shadow

With NARCISSE TAIJI, Atelier Materi unveils an exceptional niche fragrance that perfectly captures the dual character of the narcissus flower – luminous and radiant, yet dark and enigmatic. Perfumer Marie Hugentobler selected rare narcissus blossoms from the French Aubrac mountains, where local farmers handpick the delicate flowers. Nearly 1,600 kilograms of blossoms are required to extract just one kilogram of narcissus absolute – a testament to its rarity and value.

The composition of NARCISSE TAIJI highlights both the fresh, green-floral brightness and the deep, almost animalic sensuality of this precious flower. A velvety base of patchouli and leather accords grounds the composition, creating a fascinating tension between light and shadow that feels both sophisticated and seductive.
