Francesca Bianchi LOST IN HEAVEN

Orange blossom, jasmine and animalic warmth blur innocence and desire in a fragrance suspended between purity and temptation.

Fragrance Story

Lost in Heaven depicts a dream sequence of an adult getting lost in paradise. 

It represents the complexity of feelings conveying both the longing for a place of uncontaminated innocence and unconditional love and the inevitable and controversial burden of life, made up of feelings of sin and guilt – real, or even worse, imaginary.

This dichotomy, which sits at the back of anyone’s soul, is portrayed by a selection of the most angelic notes: beautiful Orange Flower and Jasmine absolutes, together with soft Heliotrope, smooth Sandalwood, sweet Tonka Bean and many other notes that I consider paradisiac. 

The darker side is conveyed in a much more subtle way, not immediately detectable, via cumin and other spices, and a large selection of animalistic notes, including a reconstruction of Tonkin Musk. 

Inspiration

Lost in Heaven revisits the sensual complexity of historic French compositions through Bianchi's contemporary perspective. Its central tension lies between innocence and carnality—the idea that what appears heavenly and what feels earthly may be closer than we imagine.
