The Perfumer's Journey: From First Notes to a Signature Style

Edriel Basinang is a name that is increasingly heard among connoisseurs of niche perfumery. This perfumer does not chase the loud fame of mega-brands, but his works have already found their discerning audience. Behind the master are years of studying the delicate art of composition and an endless search for the perfect balance between nature and fantasy. His journey began with a classical education at one of the leading perfume schools, where he learned the basics of working with essential oils and synthetic molecules. But his true passion for creating fragrances was awakened through travel: it was travel that gave him the palette of sensations that he later transferred into bottles.

The starting point in Basinang's professional biography was his collaboration with the niche house Parfums Astraux. This brand is known for its desire to convey pure emotions through scents, rejecting mass-market templates. Working with Parfums Astraux gave the perfumer complete creative freedom: he could experiment with rare ingredients, create multi-layered pyramids, and not be afraid of unexpected combinations. It was here that his talent for telling stories without words—only through notes—fully blossomed.

Signature Style: What's the Secret of Basinang's Fragrances

Edriel Basinang's style is impossible to confuse with anyone else: he masterfully combines transparent freshness with deep sensuality. In his works, floral and woody accents occupy a special place, but he also loves to add an unexpected 'zest'—spicy, green, or even slightly meditative notes. The master admits that he draws inspiration from Asian traditions (his name and roots hint at Indonesian or Filipino origin), so his compositions often feature notes of tuberose, osmanthus, spicy ginger, and cool mint.

Another distinctive feature is the ability to create voluminous, 'breathing' fragrances that sound differently depending on the weather and the wearer's mood. This is achieved through a complex structure where each note plays its role, but none pulls the blanket over itself. For example, in the fragrance Parfums Astraux - Orange Blossom, one of the perfumer's most famous works, the freshness of orange blossom gently intertwines with white flowers and a drop of musk, creating the illusion of a morning garden after rain.

Signature Compositions and Their Magic

The collection created by Edriel for Parfums Astraux already includes more than a dozen fragrances, each of which is a little story. In addition to the aforementioned Orange Blossom, it is worth paying attention to the mysterious Parfums Astraux - ‘To Mo Tsikulit — its name translates from one of the dialects as 'your kiss,' and it is indeed a very intimate, warm compliment with hints of vanilla and amber. For lovers of marine notes, Ocean Wind was created — a salty breeze with aquatic and dry woody accents, and for romantic souls, the delicate Rose with a drop of lychee and a transparent sound.

Also in the master's portfolio are hits such as Sakura (an airy, almost watercolor fragrance of cherry blossoms), Vanilla (without cloying sweetness — with hints of tobacco and tonka beans), Chamomile (a soothing green tea with chamomile), the daring No name, the playful I’m Falling For You, and the luxurious Osmanthus with an apricot nuance. Each of them is an opportunity to touch the world of subtle sensations.
