Product detail
"Tierra Maya highlights two fascinating and iconic ingredients from Central America for perfumers: Peruvian balsam and cardamom.
El Salvador is the only country to produce Peruvian balsam resin on the Costa Balsamera, thanks to an ancestral know-how passed down from generation to generation. As for Guatemala, it is renowned for the quality of its cardamom, cultivated throughout the country.
In this fragrance, Ilias Ermenidis places Peruvian balsam at the heart of the scent. It brings depth to a modern ambery accord, enhanced with musks and a long list of beautiful natural ingredients.
Extracts of high-quality green cardamom are included in a bouquet of cold and warm spices that define the fragrance. A duo of centifolia and damascena rose extracts has been incorporated to add an addictive touch."
