Gauguin

Gauguin by Francesca Bianchi is a fragrance inspired by Paul Gauguin’s vision of Polynesia, translating his evocative use of color and form into an olfactory composition. The scent opens with a bright, slightly abstract interplay of bergamot and aldehydes, leading into a heart built around a tropical white-floral accord of tiaré and monoi, enriched with supporting nuances of ylang-ylang, tuberose, geranium and a coconut facet. These elements aim to convey a lush, imaginary Polynesian landscape rather than a strictly realistic portrait. The base rests on warm and soft notes of amber, vanilla, musk and vetiver, providing a velvety, gently resinous and woody backdrop for the solar florals above. The result is a tropical-leaning composition where radiant flowers and creamy nuances are balanced by a deeper, ambery structure.
