Maison Crivelli - Absinthe Boréale – Eau de Parfum

Maison Crivelli - ABSINTHE BORÉALE - Eau de Parfum

ABSINTHE BORÉALE by Maison Crivelli is a fascinating fragrance that combines the cool, fresh note of wormwood (absinthe) with a crystalline, almost arctic clarity. Maison Crivelli is known for its unconventional fragrance creations that offer sensual adventures and tell stories of unexpected encounters. ABSINTHE BORÉALE captures the essence of a mystical moment in nature, like breathing in the fresh, icy wind of a winter morning while the northern lights illuminate the sky.

The story behind the ABSINTHE BORÉALE fragrance: drink a shot of icy absinthe under the magical glow of the Northern Lights.

Nathalie Feisthauer has placed wormwood at the centre of this fragrance, a plant known for its bitter and aromatic properties and often associated with the world of absinthe. In ABSINTHE BORÉALE, however, wormwood is interpreted in a new and surprising way: instead of a heavy, alcoholic density, it is combined here with a crystal-clear freshness reminiscent of frozen forests and glistening snowy landscapes.

The opening of the fragrance is characterised by a cool, almost icy freshness that immediately brings to mind the clear air of a snowy winter landscape. This coolness is complemented by sparkling and slightly spicy notes that give the fragrance a lively dynamic. The aromatic depth of the wormwood gradually unfolds, its bitter, green character creating a fascinating interplay of freshness and earthiness. This reveals the typical signature of Maison Crivelli: the art of harmoniously uniting opposites.

As the fragrance develops, soft, slightly musky and woody accords come to the fore. These warmer notes form an interesting contrast to the initial freshness and give ABSINTHE BORÉALE a pleasant balance that is both invigorating and calming at the same time. This duality makes the fragrance a constant interplay between cold and warmth, between freshness and depth.

The name ABSINTHE BORÉALE perfectly reflects the image that this fragrance evokes. ‘Boréale‘ is reminiscent of polar lights (’Aurora Borealis"), which unfold in the sky over icy landscapes in the far north and open up a different, almost magical world. This fragrance also creates an atmosphere of mystery and adventure in which one is enchanted by Arctic nature. 

ABSINTHE BORÉALE is ideal for people who appreciate unusual and cool fragrances that are not only refreshing, but also deep and complex. It is a perfect perfume for winter or for cool days when you want to enjoy the feeling of freshness and purity on your skin. At the same time, it is a fragrance that also has its appeal in the warmer months, as the cool freshness offers a refreshing contrast to the heat.

Maison Crivelli remains true to its minimalist aesthetic, and the bottle of ABSINTHE BORÉALE reflects this: simple and elegant, it draws attention to what really matters - the unique contents, which offer an olfactory journey into the icy expanses of the north. All in all, Nathalie Feisthauer has created a remarkable perfume with ABSINTHE BORÉALE, which captivates with its unusual combination of fresh, bitter and woody notes. It is a fragrance that not only awakens the senses, but also tells a story of nature and adventure - perfect for anyone who wants to experience a unique and unexpected olfactory journey.
