Rio de Janeiro.
On the outskirts of the Brazilian metropolis, in the shade of the vegetation of Tijuca National Park, macumba rituals are performed.
Macumba is a term from the African Bantu language used to define religious practices that blend pagan elements of African origin with influences from popular Christianity and multiple influences from Brazilian culture. Contrary to Western belief, macumba is not always necessarily connected to "negative" rituals: rather, most of these syncretic propitiatory rites seek to promote protection, health, prosperity, good fortune, and well-being.
These paranormal rituals also involve animal sacrifices to encourage the positive influences of the deities.
MANGOMACUMBA is the first addition to Spiritica's OSCURATACOLLECTION.
The opening of MANGOMACUMBA extrait de parfum 35% is extremely fresh, fruity, joyful, luminous, and tropical. The sweet notes of realistic, tropical mango blend with the more angular, citrusy nuances of lime and pineapple. The whole is rounded off with a touch of peppermint, which, along with the ozonic notes, contributes a broad, oxygenating freshness from the first spray.
A bloody, juicy heart emerges between ferrous notes and tropical flowers, directly recalling the places, tools used, and sacrificial offerings made during these rituals.
Throughout its long, increasingly dark and ferrous evolution, MANGOMACUMBA offers us a ritual olfactory experience that unites darkness and light.
A stark contrast from the opening to the base, which features a highly prized
tobacco absolute, mixed with the darkness of luxurious ebony essential oil and warm, wild notes of red earth, softened by sweet, reassuring lactonic notes.
MANGOMACUMBA is an invitation to "look beyond" what has been imposed on us, a stimulus to unite the diversity of cultures, and a way to explore one of the darkest and most mysterious sides of human existence.
MANGOMACUMBA was created in collaboration with the young perfumer Daniele Cerroni, who crafted the fragrance step by step, following the conceptual ideas of spiritualica founder Daniele Muratori Caputo.
