Takamaka Kreolfleurage, launched in 2000, is marketed as a unisex fragrance, falling within the wood and floral families. Perfumer Dagmar Ehlert poured every ounce of mastery into this one. An eau de parfum — light-footed, but utterly unforgettable.
Brand country — Seychelles: a place that truly knows its way around a great scent. Takamaka Kreolfleurage unfolds gradually, effortlessly, and with great refinement — a perfect choice for day or evening.
The fragrance is very long-lasting, staying on the skin for 12 hours or more, gradually revealing its notes
The scent will linger in the air even after its wearer has left.
The perfume has a rich aroma that will help you stand out from the crowd and create a memorable image
A rich and elegant fragrance that gently unfolds on the skin and lasts most of the day, leaving a delicate trail
Fragrances for spring and summer unfold with light citrus notes, floral and fruity accords, filling the composition with freshness, airiness, and a feeling of carefree lightness on warm days
The note pyramid of Takamaka unfolds as a continuous scent journey, where notes flow with precision and warmth. The creative approach of Kreolfleurage is recognizable in the way notes appear and fade. Nothing here feels random, and the fragrance holds its character from opening to trail. Eau de parfum supports a balanced rhythm of unfolding.
When the pyramid is blended into one block the fragrance opens as a single chord with a architectural woody mood: Cedar, Geranium, Jasmine, Lemongrass, Nutmeg, Takamaka tree and Vetiver. In this case 7 notes act as one voice, creating clear woody framework that reads as cohesive from the start.
The inner phases are perceived as a continuous motion from lift to depth, which keeps the fragrance coherent.
The internal accord map is built around these accords: Citrus, Floral, Wood and Spicy with each one in a clear role.
From the group perspective the profile is anchored in Wood, Floral, Whiteflower and Citrus. It also reaches into Spicy. At family level the fragrance belongs to Floral and Wood.
Overall Takamaka sounds complete from start to finish — the start forms character, the middle layer carries the identity, and the base secures the trail. These are the scent structures best experienced in wear.
