{"product_id":"kalahari-extreme","title":"Kalahari Extrême – Spicy Woody Eau de Parfum","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKalahari Extrême by Noème Paris\u003c\/strong\u003e is a woody, spicy, amber eau de parfum, unisex, created by \u003cstrong\u003eEmna Doghri\u003c\/strong\u003e. Its base is \u003cstrong\u003ereduced to two dry resins\u003c\/strong\u003e, without a single musk to soften it — and that is the whole point.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eA house that only names inaccessible places\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNoème\u003c\/strong\u003e comes from the Greek \u003cem\u003enoema\u003c\/em\u003e and refers to \u003cstrong\u003ewhat lies behind the subconscious\u003c\/strong\u003e: the inaccessible. The house, founded \u003cstrong\u003ein 2018\u003c\/strong\u003e by \u003cstrong\u003eYassin Karim\u003c\/strong\u003e with the French-Moroccan perfumer \u003cstrong\u003eMajda Bekkali\u003c\/strong\u003e, applies the principle to the letter — \u003cstrong\u003eits perfumes bear the names of places that man can only imagine\u003c\/strong\u003e: burning deserts, Mexican crystal caves, ocean depths. Yassin Karim was born in Madagascar to parents who exported spices and flowers, and grew up \u003cstrong\u003esurrounded by warehouses filled with vanilla pods\u003c\/strong\u003e. Each reference has its \u003cstrong\u003ewatercolor illustration\u003c\/strong\u003e, and the bottle bears a quote attributed to Albert Einstein: \"\u003cem\u003eimagination is more important than knowledge\u003c\/em\u003e\".\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eAn opening of pear, anise and orange\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe start is fresh and almost edible. The \u003cstrong\u003epear\u003c\/strong\u003e brings its juicy flesh, the \u003cstrong\u003eanise\u003c\/strong\u003e its licorice freshness, the \u003cstrong\u003eorange\u003c\/strong\u003e its sweet radiance. Three tender materials, which is unexpected for a perfume bearing the name of a desert.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eA heart of myrrh, Virginian cedarwood and spices\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe landscape changes. The \u003cstrong\u003emyrrh\u003c\/strong\u003e dries everything out with its bitter resin, the \u003cstrong\u003eVirginian cedarwood\u003c\/strong\u003e brings its woody dust, the \u003cstrong\u003enutmeg\u003c\/strong\u003e, the \u003cstrong\u003epink pepper\u003c\/strong\u003e and the \u003cstrong\u003ecardamom\u003c\/strong\u003e their spicy warmth. The sweetness of the start evaporates.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eA base of incense and labdanum\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo materials, and nothing else. \u003cstrong\u003eIncense\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003elabdanum\u003c\/strong\u003e are two dry resins, and the formula adds \u003cstrong\u003eno musk, no vanilla, no creamy wood\u003c\/strong\u003e to round off the finish. It is a radical choice, which leaves the perfume arid until the end.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eThe house's gesture\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlmost all woody perfumes close on musks or a vanilla, which brings the trail closer to the skin and makes it comfortable. Kalahari Extrême refuses this comfort: \u003cstrong\u003eits base counts only two resins\u003c\/strong\u003e, and the pear of the start disappears without leaving a trace. At a house that only names places where man cannot live, it is the desert of southern Africa that is treated here — and the formula draws its literal consequence rather than its image.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFor whom, for what occasions?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor those who love dry woods and incense, without needing a soft finish. It is an autumn and winter perfume, wearable day and night, with good longevity and a clear trail. Kalahari Extrême Noème Paris will appeal to those who are looking for an arid rather than an enveloping perfume.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"NOEME PARIS","offers":[{"title":"100 ml","offer_id":54414989623560,"sku":"PROD-000722","price":210.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1009\/0315\/8024\/files\/Noeme_Paris_Kalahari_Extreme_100ML.png?v=1792179228","url":"https:\/\/odorare.fr\/en\/products\/kalahari-extreme","provider":"Odorare Parfumerie","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
