Fado Jasmim

Fado can simultaneously speak of love, death, the sea, and joy that already knows it will end. MIGUEL MATOS Fado Jasmim applies the same contrast to jasmine: a lavishly vibrant flower whose indolic decay is already perceptible.

Lemon and petitgrain open the extrait green and bitter, like the garden of the woman Miguel Matos considered his "borrowed grandmother." After her death, this familiar scent became part of the composition.

Passion fruit, banana, plum, and peach bring tropical and ripe joy, connecting fado to its African and Brazilian roots. Coconut further softens the fruity warmth.

Jasmine, indole, tuberose, and rose then create a floral heart full of passion, sin, and sensuality. Civet pushes it towards an animalic edge, while oud deepens the sense of darkness.

Ambergris brings salt and the presence of the sea — beautiful, yet powerful enough to carry people away and create farewells. Amber, moss, musk, and coumarin later leave a dense, romantic finish.

Fado Jasmim is not a light jasmine with fruit. It is indolic jasmine with banana, civet, oud, and the salt of farewells — a joy that only sounds genuine when you hear sadness within it.
