Kite in Crystal Reef – Extrait de Parfum

Simone Andreoli – an independent perfume house from Carpi near Modena, founded in 2014 by the perfumer of the same name, who composes every fragrance as a page of his “Diario Olfattivo”, an olfactory travel diary.

Kite in Crystal Reef is fresh, salty and free. Bergamot, crisp green apple and sea salt open like a strong breeze, white lotus, neroli and aquatic notes form a crystalline accord at the heart, before ambrox, musk, tonka bean, vanilla and cedarwood recall sun-warmed skin after a day at sea.

Kite in Crystal Reef is at its best in spring and summer, by day. A unisex fragrance for anyone who likes freshness with warmth underneath.

What makes Kite in Crystal Reef special to us is the feeling it captures: kitesurfing over a turquoise reef, 25 knots of wind, the beaches of Paje on Zanzibar. Simone Andreoli translates that moment between adrenaline and inner calm into a scent – fresh, yet comforting.
