Noa Noa

75 ml

A citrusy and tropical dawn, a heart that blends nature and culture, culminating in a twilight of musk and vanilla, an extraordinary journey to Tahiti.

His illustrated journal, titled "Noa Noa" (perfume in Tahitian), chronicles his relentless search for paradise lost in the idyllic lands of Tahiti. This legendary journal reflects not only the great painter's inner struggle, but also his unique vision of the lush Tahitian landscape, its people, and its rich ancestral culture. Tormented by the need to discover wild nature, Gauguin began his journey in the isolated villages of Brittany, where his first sketches began to come to life. However, this unquenchable passion eventually led him to the crystalline waters of French Polynesia, where his art was transformed and he lived with the local tribes as one of them, revising and enriching their works.

The opening notes of Bergamot, Lemon, Orange, and Ginger are a tribute to the exuberance of tropical flora and the freshness of sun-kissed fruits.
The heart of Juniper, Petitgrain, and Monoi transports us to the island's interior, where natural aromas and cultural essences blend in an intimate embrace.
The base of Musk, Vetiver, and Vanilla is a tribute to the depth of the Tahitian experience, to the enduring bond with its spirit.

BOTANICAE

We were born with the challenge of preserving a destination within a bottle. We sustainably promote access to artistic perfumery, without large impersonal marketing campaigns or the barriers of ultra-luxury.

Our story

We have always been travelers, entrepreneurs and curious people.
In 2012, we began our journey in the fragrance industry, where after our training we were fortunate to be assigned to the Middle East Region. There, perfumes are a culture, and in almost every home, the ingredients are known, and their blends are passed down from generation to generation.

Together with multinationals in the sector, we worked with the region's historic brands, for whom we coordinated the formulation and supply of fragrances, while sharing endless discussions over tea.

Emirates, Iran, Saudi Arabia, Oman, Libya, India, Pakistan... Our experience grew, and so did the territories we covered, starting to travel throughout East Africa and South Asia. An exciting period that taught us to open our eyes to other cultures, their scents, and their traditions.

At the end of 2018, the Mediterranean reclaimed us, and we returned home, from where we continued to travel while we settled in.

We decided to venture out and share the experiences of all those years through perfumes, and to do so in a sustainable, humane, and honest way. This is how Botanicae was born.

From here, our stories are told with perfumes. We work and live intensely to continue surprising you with them.
