RAVEL perfumes to delight your senses and bring joy (peace) to your soul.

A captivating, mysterious, beautifully floral, leathery fragrance, lasting 16 hours or more with just a few drops, thanks to the precious red sandalwood oil from the Mysore region of India, with its exceptionally soft, sweet, woody, animalic, balsamic scent, with hints of vanilla, one of the finest women's fragrances from RAVEL PERFUMES—and beyond.

ORPHEA, a women's fragrance named in honor of the lyric poet and musician ORPHEUS (6th century BC).  

Ravel Perfumes (the name was chosen after the composer), was founded by Aizic Manole in the 1940s, after his partnership with the perfume house Legrain (1915) dissolved, shortly before the Second World War. It began operating in 1945 - Ravel Perfumes in Nice, France, and had a branch in New York.

Burgundy-colored box, with an illustration in the center showing nymphs dancing as they listen to the songs of Orpheus.

Heavy, clear glass bottle, with beautiful diamond-shaped patterns molded into the glass from the middle of the bottle down, crafted by Czech artisans in what was once Czechoslovakia.

Round cap in burgundy.

A fragrance with top notes of bergamot, orange, and neroli (orange blossom), creating a refreshing aura; heart notes that add touches of floral elegance: rose, Arabian jasmine (Jasminum sambac), hyacinth (Hyacinthus orientalis – common hyacinth), lily of the valley (Convallaria majalis), orris root (Iris pallida); base notes envelop you in a warm, unforgettable embrace for at least 16 hours: oakmoss (Evernia prunastri), patchouli (Pogostemon cablin), vetiver (Vetiveria zizanioides), amber, musk (Moschus moschiferus), sandalwood (Mysore).    

An enigmatic, alluring, intoxicating fragrance—in short, a rare treasure, made with authentic red sandalwood (Mysore). When it was released, synthetic sandalwood derivatives did not exist, and it holds its own against fragrances such as GUERLAIN's original SAMSARA (1989)—and could even cross the finish line first. 

The product was manufactured by VIAROM LTD—VIAROM LLC, 17th km Rafina–Pallini, and distributed by PHILIPPOS GEORGANTAS 1864 S.A., 7–9 Chalandriou Avenue, Melissia, Attica, and we were the exclusive sellers as authorized distributors.
