“A fundamental stone of universal love and of infinite compassion: compassion towards oneself and towards the Other. The Pink Quartz is linked to heart "chakra". It opens on dreams; it is inspiring, leading to the source of inner peace, of absolute calm and happiness.”
These are the words Olivier Durbano wrote to describe his inspiration for his ode to the symbolism of pink quartz, the rare and light-sensitive crystalline form of rose quartz. Rose is naturally the star ingredient here, a bright, fulsome one that is brought to bursting life in the opening by citrus, saffron and ginger and warmed at its heart with amber, patchouli and musk. Heading into Fall and Winter we can see us keeping this love letter to the most perfect summer near to hand at all times. It’s as beautiful as a perfect Technicolor rose garden, it’s as calming as a hammock lazily swaying in the summer breeze. It’s a lifeline during stressful times and drab, short grey days to a place where the sun shines warmly on your face and all is right with the world.
“From the stone to the flower, a love ritual of healing, a sacred procession, a conversion ceremony leading to such essential qualifies as purity, spirituality and compassion. The rose remains a powerful symbol at the crossroads of our human émotions. The rose represents the dawn of a new era to be reinvented by all human souls together.”
We couldn’t have said it better ourselves.
