From the scent of the soil bathed by the sun to the fizzy fragrances of citrus fruit; from heady notes of sandalwood and patchouli to the fruity ones of bucchu or the subtle notes of leather, all the way through to the multiple aromas of the savannah, Izwe is a natural perfume depicting the ancestral and contemporary identity of South Africa.

For Les Parfumeurs du monde, Perrine has chosen South Africa and the ingredient Bucchu (Agathosma betulina), a shrub from the citrus trees family, endemic to the Western Cape mountains of South Africa. Bucchu is considered a sacred plant for the Khoesan tribe who sees it as a vessel for potent force with a role in healing. According to their tradition, bucchu is used in ointments and perfumes to carry fertility in women and to invigorate the body in order to open the senses to transfer power.
