WELCOME TO ABU DHABI
From the tranquil balance between sea and desert, a fragrance emerges as the fruit of joyous encounters. It is the fruit in its truest sense. A precious date ripens, sublime, sugary, and succulent. Then comes the plum with its salt-kissed warmth, carrying the soft undulation of the dune and tide. Its name is burnished by the sands of Al Wathba by the Arabian Gulf, as rounded as the landscape of the Mangrove National Park. Amid the evening air, it greets the amber and saffron reflected in a glass titan, which shimmers on the water’s surface. Could it be the dreamy vision of a fragrance bottle emerging there? Abu Dhabi: its name oscillates in two beats, swaying in time with the palm fronds in the Al Ain Oasis, where it is also welcomed by the aromatic freshness of cardamom and woody fullness of vetiver. What is the secret to its inner metronome? Avowed to the dynamic present yet woven with eternity, it is akin to Al Sadu, the traditional, handmade, Emirati fabric whose motifs are enlivened by countless shared stories. It befits the Sadu draped around the Abu Dhabi fragrance bottle. Indeed, this was the one whose radiance was revealed in the bay.
Inspired by the Al-Sadu patterns
The traditional technique of weaving camel fur, goat hair and sheep wool into material for blankets, carpets, pillows, tents and decoration. Al-Sadu holds a place of particular honour in Emirati society, recognised for its essential role in Bedouin life. It was inscribed in 2011 on the UNESCO list of intangible cultural heritage.
Artistic Collab - Julien Colombier
French artist living and working in Paris, his youth was influenced by pop and urban culture, graffiti, and comics. He has always painted, and his research focuses on the interplay of textures, color harmonies, motifs, and abstract forms, which he multiplies on supports ranging from canvas to paper, wall, wood or installation - with a preference for very large formats. His universe, which features mainly plant elements, plays on graphic repetition and visual loops, becoming at once dreamlike and hypnotic, plunging the viewer into a singular world.
