Tauer L'Air du Désert Marocain
A perfume that doesn't represent a place. It makes you feel like you're in it.
L'Air du Désert Marocain is considered one of the greatest works of independent niche perfumery. Created by Andy Tauer, it seeks to replicate the experience of walking through the Moroccan desert at dusk, when the warmth of the sand meets the cold evening wind. The combination of spices, incense, amber, cedar and vetiver creates an intense, dry and deeply enveloping fragrance.
