Selene (SEΛENE)

Selene (SEΛENE) by Manos Gerakinis is a Floral Woody Musk fragrance for women and men. Selene (SEΛENE) was launched in 2023. The nose behind this fragrance is Christina Koutsoudaki. Top notes are Grapefruit Peel, Petitgrain and Calabrian bergamot; middle notes are Orange Blossom, Jasmine Sambac, Violet and Praline; base notes are Musk, Ambergris, Sandalwood and Cedarwood. SEΛENE (pronounced "Se-lee-nee") is named after the eponymous ancient Greek mythological figure, the Titanian goddess of the moon, who was imagined driving her chariot across the heavens. Our founder and creative director, Manos Gerakinis, wished to pay with this fragrance an olfactive homage to the unique charm of a Greek summer evening spent in an open air cinema. There, while viewing a film under the stars, one feels caressed by a plethora of diverse aromas that magically merge into one, as if fused together by the moonlight: citrus tree blossoms and leaves, serene woods, and night-blooming jasmine from the neighbouring trees and gardens, a delicious note of praline evoking the sweet treats that are being enjoyed while watching the movie, along with a musky, sensuous cloud echoing an ideal, warm and breezy, Athenian summer night. The ambergris and musks used in this composition are both from synthetic origins.
