Reflet sur L'Okavango – Eau de Parfum

ELLA K is a French niche fragrance house from Paris, founded in 2018 by Givaudan perfumer Sonia Constant. Every scent tells of a place she has travelled to herself – Reflet sur L'Okavango of the river delta in Botswana that never reaches the sea.

Reflet sur L'Okavango smells of acacia blossom, honey and green papyrus – floral, creamy and sweet. Marula liqueur and papyrus open fruity-green, acacia blossom, African caper blossom and iris come together in the heart, before tonka bean, sycamore and mopane lay down a soft, woody base.

Reflet sur L'Okavango works all year round and suits day and evening. This unisex scent feels gentle and idiosyncratic at once – sweet without tipping into candy floss.

What makes Reflet sur L'Okavango special to us is the acacia: Sonia Constant brought out its honeyed side and broke it with sunny, powdery caper blossom and the green papyrus of the delta shore. An acacia you rarely smell like this.
