Alpha 11 - The Alchemist's Feast.

In a hidden garden on the outskirts of a great city, an alchemist was said to be hosting a midnight banquet for those who dared to venture beyond reality. The invitation was discreet: a single whiff of perfume, a bold blend of saffron, banana, and mint, enhanced by an indefinable note, barely perceptible, but impossible to forget.

Guests arrived without really understanding what attracted them. As soon as they passed through the garden gates, the air changed. The scent evolved, thickened, and became alive. Ylang-ylang, tuberose, jasmine… an opulent floral heart rose in the night air, mingling with incense smoke and light laughter. There was something shifting, elusive about this fragrance, as if it told a different story to each person.

As the hours passed, the guests were transformed. At three in the morning, the entire garden seemed to float outside of time. The base notes—tonka bean, tobacco, civet—settled like an animal warmth, deep, intoxicating. Bodies moved slowly under the moonlight, guided by an invisible energy. The scent was no longer a mere trail: it was becoming an experience, a possession.

And then morning came. The alchemist was gone. So was the garden. But on their skin, the fragrance was still there, a subtle but persistent trace, a reminder of a strange and unforgettable night. From then on, the guests had only one obsession: to find that place, that scent, that moment again.

To wear Alpha 11 is to enter a world where anything is possible. The opening notes awaken a desire for discovery, a sensual and daring play. The floral heart brings depth and magnetism, while the base notes leave a powerful, animal, almost mystical imprint on the skin.

To others, you become an enigma. A magnetic, mysterious presence, a breath of the unknown that intrigues and fascinates. Like a secret that we guess at without ever truly unraveling.

The perfumer: Miguel Matos

Miguel Matos is a self-taught Portuguese perfumer renowned for his artistic and experimental approach to perfumery. Before embarking on the creation of his own fragrances, he extensively studied and analyzed the world of perfume, specializing in rare compositions, niche creations, and vintage olfactory works. His passion for fragrances led him to deeply explore codes, history, and classic structures, while developing a keen sensitivity to raw materials and their narrative potential.

This journey of observation, research, and criticism has allowed him to build a true culture of perfume, nourished by an aesthetic and analytical perspective. By taking the step toward creation, he has freed himself from commercial conventions to offer personal, often daring compositions that flirt with contemporary art. His perfumes are distinguished by unexpected associations, a strong sensory expressiveness, and an assumed desire to provoke or move. Through his creations, Miguel Matos does not seek to please at all costs, but to translate ideas, memories, or atmospheres into olfactory language.

Adar

Adar is a perfume house that pushes the boundaries of traditional perfumery. Founded by two passionate and elusive creators, Adar offers rare, profound, and resolutely personal elixirs. Each fragrance tells a story, an emotion, a suspended moment.

At Adar, creation is a balancing act between Light and Shadow. Light gives life to light, luminous, almost airy notes. Shadow draws on intensity and mystery, with darker, enveloping accords. Together, they give birth to contrasting fragrances, where opposites echo and enhance each other.

The raw materials are carefully selected, often unexpected, always precious. The composition techniques are free, innovative, and sometimes daring. The goal is never to follow a trend, but to create a fragrance that touches, intrigues, and lingers.

Each Adar fragrance is more than just a perfume: it's a unique piece, a handcrafted work of art, designed as a showcase for the soul of the fragrance. It also contains a secret note, subtle and almost elusive, which leaves a sensation on the skin that is both strange and familiar—like a hazy memory that we can't quite put a name to.

Adar is for those who seek the unexpected, who love to lose themselves in a fragrance as much as to find themselves within it. For those who see perfume as a form of expression, of creation, of freedom.

More than a brand, Adar is a sensory experience. A world apart, somewhere between art and nature, between intuition and precision. An invitation to feel differently, to explore what words cannot always express.
