Amber Saba
by Reine de Saba (France)
From the depths of history, from the legendary Kingdom of Sheba, where kings and queens exchanged precious gifts and rare fragrances, comes "Amber Saba," a perfume narrating the aromatic legacy of a civilization whose echoes remain timeless.
Inspired by the fusion of legend and history, this fragrance captures the moment the Queen of Sheba entered King Solomon’s palace, bearing Yemen's treasures and a peaceful message scented with olibanum (frankincense) and pink pepper.
The Perfumer - Sophie Labbé
This creation is the masterpiece of the renowned French perfumer Sophie Labbé from Firmenich. With Amber Saba, she sought to blend ancient Oriental heritage with modern fragrance innovation.
Inspired by incense, a sacred symbol deeply rooted in Yemeni history, Sophie utilized cutting-edge technology that represents the future of perfumery.
The Inspiration
In this fragrance, Sophie saw a reflection of the voice of the Queen of Sheba.
Pink pepper symbolizes serene strength, mirroring the queen's peaceful yet commanding presence.
Arabian jasmine (Jasmin Sambac) embodies Yemen's pure femininity, while ambergris reflects the legendary depth of the region's aromatic heritage. To add innovation, Sophie incorporated Dreamwood™, a sustainable and plant-based alternative to sandalwood produced through biotechnology, showcasing a contemporary vision for fragrance creation.
Pure and Innovative Craftsmanship
Sophie carefully selected the finest natural ingredients, employing precise and modern extraction techniques.
Ambergris, black pepper, and Arabian jasmine were sourced responsibly, complemented by Ambroxan, which reinterprets amber’s allure with modern elegance and a gentle touch of Madagascar vanilla.
