For Mudéjar Obscur, the inspiration is the same as for our first Mudéjar fragrance. It is the Mudéjar art, a syncretic art that developed in Andalusia between the 12th and 16th centuries. Sacred and profane buildings have been built in a rich and fertile architectural vocabulary, combining artistic, technical and symbolic contributions from different cultures.
The stone has gone through the centuries. It recalls today in a burning way our memories, the happy artistic and symbolic mixture of the three monotheis6c cultures that Andalusian land has united. The hands of the Mudejar crafsmen have carved, engraved, painted, sculpted this eternal testimony. The churches are decorated with arabesques, with arches overstepped, and chased plaster. The bell-towers are in the form of minarets. The palaces enclose treasures of ceramics and interior courtyards worthy of those of Damascus.
Mudéjar Obscur is a nightwalk. First, it takes us through the garden of a Mudejar palace, while the air is loaded with scents and fragrances. When we step inside the building, the shadows are darker and the frehness is sharper. Mudéjar – Obscur is a polarizing fragrance, with powerful contrasts.
