Pangea – Extrait de Parfum - The first continent on Earth

Extra Virgo PANGEA Extrait de Parfum

Iris root, dark earth, and the mysterious world beneath our feet

EXTRA VIRGO PANGEA Extrait de Parfum is an extraordinary Extrait de Parfum that does not tell a story of blossoms, fruits, or classic freshness, but of earth, roots, rhizomes, and the hidden life beneath the surface. Inspired by the supercontinent Pangaea, the fragrance combines precious Florentine iris root with absolutes of porcini mushroom, shiitake, and truffle, black Ojari frankincense, and aged Siam benzoin. The result is an uncompromising luxury niche perfume, earthy and mysterious, yet surprisingly elegant and sensual.

The name refers to that time hundreds of millions of years ago when Earth's landmasses formed a single continent. For EXTRA VIRGO PANGEA, this becomes less a geological narrative than an image of primordial connectedness: earth, roots, and organic materials become the starting point for a fragrance composition that feels archaic yet appears exceptionally refined.

Florentine Iris Root – Cool, Powdery, and of Earthy Depth

At the center of PANGEA lies rare, small-batch processed Florentine orris, extracted from the rhizome of the iris. Unlike the flower, the freshly harvested iris root initially possesses almost no scent. Only long aging and maturation develop that characteristic, precious aroma for which true orris is valued in classical perfumery.

In EXTRA VIRGO PANGEA, iris does not show itself as overtly floral. It appears cool, dry, slightly powdery, and almost stony. At the same time, it possesses a soft, skin-close sensuality. Exactly this tension makes the composition interesting: historical perfumery art meets a radically unusual idea, creating a refined niche fragrance that moves far away from conventional iris perfumes.

Porcini, Shiitake, and Truffle – The Fragrance World of the Forest Floor

The true daring of PANGEA lies in combining the iris root with precious mushroom absolutes. Porcini mushroom, shiitake, and truffle lend the fragrance moist, earthy, woody, and slightly animalic nuances. In doing so, it never evokes the impression of a culinary mushroom aroma. Rather, these materials recall the forest floor, roots, damp earth, and organic life beneath a layer of leaves and moss.

Thus, EXTRA VIRGO PANGEA belongs to those special modern unisex niche fragrances that consciously open up new olfactory spaces. Anyone wishing to find a signature scent that does not lean on familiar fragrance patterns will discover here an exceptionally individual interpretation of earth and nature. The mushroom notes feel dark and mysterious, while the iris grants them elegance and an almost velvety texture.

Alex of Limbin – Perfumery Between Florence and Archaic Nature

The Forbidden Botanica collection by Extra Virgo was developed by H.H. Prince Alex of Limbin and is crafted in small batches on the Montecucchi estate near Florence. His work deliberately directs attention toward unusual plants, traditional raw materials, and components whose olfactory history stretches far back.

In PANGEA, this idea merges with the great Florentine tradition of the iris. The Etruscans already used iris rhizomes for aromatic preparations, and the iris later became the symbol of Florence. Thus emerges a fine artistic fragrance composition that does not quote historical references nostalgically, but translates them into a very independent, modern fragrance language.

Ojari Frankincense and Benzoin – Warmth Beneath the Cool Earth

Over time, PANGEA grows warmer. Royal Black Ojari frankincense brings balsamic, resinous, and lightly smoky facets into the composition. Aged Siam benzoin complements a soft, almost creamy sweetness without turning the fragrance into a gourmand. The dark earthy tones remain palpable, yet soften and increasingly become skin-close.

Particularly in the drydown, the special balance of this luxury niche perfume reveals itself. Iris, mushrooms, frankincense, and benzoin merge into a deep, quiet structure between earth, wood, resin, and powdery warmth. The scent feels sophisticated, yet never demonstratively loud.

An Extrait de Parfum for Individualists

Like the collection's other fragrances, EXTRA VIRGO PANGEA is produced in small batches. Extra Virgo specifies a proportion of around 70 to 80 percent high-quality natural ingredients as well as a fragrance concentration of approximately 25 to 30 percent. The composition matures for several months before being blended with natural alcohol and finally bottled by hand.

On the skin, PANGEA develops slowly and multidimensionally. Its presence is distinct, yet deep rather than loud. Because of this, this long-lasting fragrance is particularly suited for cooler days, quiet evenings, and as a scent for special occasions. It demands attention and rewards it with a development far removed from ordinary fragrance conventions.

Anyone seeking high-end perfumery art, rare natural materials, and individual perfumes with unmistakable character should definitely get to know EXTRA VIRGO PANGEA Extrait de Parfum. An earthy, elegant, and uncompromisingly independent modern unisex niche fragrance that makes the hidden beauty beneath the surface visible.
