About Wazamba

Parfum d'Empire Wazamba is a unisex fragrance from the oriental family, released in 2009. It was created by the brand's founder, perfumer Marc-Antoine Corticchiato.

This is an eau de parfum concentration with a noticeable sillage—an ideal choice for those who like to leave an air of mystery and luxury in their wake.

History and Creative Philosophy

Founded in 2003, the house of Parfum d'Empire is renowned for its olfactory journeys through time and space.

Wazamba is no exception: the fragrance is inspired by ancient trade routes and incense.

Marc-Antoine Corticchiato, a chemist and perfumer, created a composition that transports us to the atmosphere of Eastern bazaars and temples.

Character and Scent Profile

The fragrance opens with aldehydic freshness paired with cypress and incense. In the heart, incense meets labdanum and plum, creating a spicy-sweet accord.

A base of fern, opoponax, and resins lends the composition a deep, resinous character. It is a complex, multifaceted fragrance that will smell different on every person's skin.

Who It Suits and When to Wear It

Wazamba is a unisex fragrance for confident people who are not afraid to experiment.

Thanks to its noticeable sillage and longevity, it is perfect for evenings out or special occasions. However, it can also be worn during the day if you want to stand out.

There are no age restrictions—the main thing is that the fragrance resonates with your inner self.

Persistence
The persistence of a fragrance is determined by how long it can be felt. It is a characteristic associated with ingredients that evaporate slowly. Persistence depends on the physical properties of the perfume ingredients—mainly their volatility and environmental factors such as temperature and humidity.
Persistence
High (5 to 12 hours)

Sillage
Imagine a light cloud of fragrance that, like an aeroplane trail, remains in the air after your appearance. This is the sillage - a subtle or vivid imprint left by the most diffuse element of a perfume composition. The sillage can be almost invisible when it is felt only by you and those around you. Or it can be so expressive that its presence is noticed even long after you have left.
Sillage

Complexity and depth
The complexity of a fragrance is the number and variety of notes that create a unique composition. A complex fragrance contains many different notes that reveal themselves on the skin. The depth of a fragrance is the richness and intensity of the fragrance. Fragrances with a deep composition include heavy and powerful notes that stay on the skin longer and affect others over long distances.

The fragrance truly grabs attention. It's woody, with a light smoky nuance and resinous notes, creating an impression of seriousness and depth. It unfolds slowly, and in this process, spices elegantly intertwine with resins. An unexpected apple note adds freshness, preventing the fragrance from becoming too heavy. For me, it's definitely a must-have for business meetings. It immediately makes it clear who's who
