An ode to Africa's perfumery past and present
The African continent stands as a cornerstone in perfumery's history, offering an unparalleled richness of olfactory treasures that have entranced the senses for millennia.
From the ancient use of unguents in what is now South Africa, speculated to date back as far as 75,000 years ago, to the legendary expeditions for myrrh in Somalia and Ethiopia launched by the Egyptians, Africa's perfumed legacy is profound.
Today, some of the most sought-after perfumery ingredients are found on the continent. Treasures such as Madagascar’s sumptuously rich vanilla and Somalia’s revered frankincense offer but a glimpse of the significant perfumery ingredients originating from the African continent.
These ingredients speak to the illustrious history of perfumery on the continent and its vibrant present and future.
