MANDRAKE
ACCORDS:
WHAT THE CRITICS ARE SAYING
“Most people are familiar with Mandrake as the squalling magical plant in the Harry Potter novels and movies. This comes from Wiccan beliefs that the roots emitted a fatal scream when dug up. Creative director Joseph Quartana working with perfumer Carlos Vinals wanted to mix both the fictional qualities with the reality of the plant. What they came up with was a fragrance which evokes a plant firmly rooted in the soil which after you unearth it might just have a magical scream waiting for you.
•
Mr. Quartana was inspired by the smell of actual Mandrake which has an uncanny resemblance to apples. So Mr. Vinals uses a classic red apple accord. He surrounds the crisp fruit with the off-beat green of rhubarb, cardamom, along with birch leaf and birch root. This creates a really interesting fruity foliage accord when it all comes together. That apple is ever present but the two sources of birch provide the leafiness and the sense of the soil it is growing in. This eventually slides into a leathery woody finish around leather, sandalwood, and patchouli. To represent the magical shriek Mr. Vinals adds a sharp synthetic contrast..."

THE LEGEND OF MANDRAKE
In biblical scripture, mandrake was referred to as "the love plant" and was thought to have male fertility-enhancing properties when taken in small dosage. When ripped out of the ground, the flower was said to emit a fatal, supersonic shriek.
