The inspiration:
“Abd El Kader is my go-to fragrance whenever I want to feel like I’ve escaped to somewhere exotic. Inspired by the rugged coastal landscape of Morocco, this scent smells like a freshly poured glass of mint tea, served in the shade on a hot summer’s day. Full of just-torn spearmint, wild blackcurrant, chopped apple and crushed ginger, it feels like a breath of fresh air floating through your home. If I had to describe it as a colour, it would be a vivid green for its ability to create a sense of nature, space and wanderlust.”
Where to place it:
“I love to burn this in the kitchen next to the window so that as I look out, it feels like I’ve brought the garden inside.”
The expert tip:
“For me, fragrance has a really powerful ‘invisible’ effect that I use daily to ‘decorate’ my home – it’s a really simple way to instantly transform the space around you, without having to re-paint the walls or move the furniture.”
