Jeroboam GOZO collage with images from Jeroboam (Vanina Muracciole and Abdulaziz Al Ajail), and Sebastian Jara©

 In 2015 at Esxence I was sniffing around and as always peeked into the Jovoy Paris booth. It was there I spied a black flacon with the name Jeroboam. Francois Henin, who is the owner of JOVOY PARFUMS RARE (be sure to read our recent We Love This Store here) and the founder of the Jovoy Paris brand indulged me and told me about the upcoming launch of 12 extraits. At that time, he mentioned the olfactive thread that would run through the new brand would be musk and that the perfumes would be composed by Vanina Muracciole. Fast Forward to 2020: For the first time, Jeroboam swaps its black and gold flacon for an orange one. 

“By dint of meetings and discussions generally around a real Karak,  Abdulaziz Al Ajail Abdulaziz one day told François Henin, the brand owner, about his experience of what he considers to be a glimpse of heaven on earth; the Maltese island of Gozo which has its own magical aspect. At the crossroads of worlds and times, it contains vestiges of past settlements and of successive domination by the Phoenicians, Romans, Arabs, Sicilians, the British or the French. Its coastal coves are like surreal postcards. In the evening, the winds seem to bring scents from both Africa and Europe. “Jeroboam GOZO was created by Vanina Muracciole following artistic direction and friendly collaboration of Abdulaziz Al Ajail, an amazing person I had initially met at the grand opening of our first (out of 3 now) successful Jovoy franchises in Qatar. Since then we kept on meeting in Paris; London, Doha (when I could travel there). We finally could not resist anymore the temptation to collaborate and the fruit of this adventure is Jeroboam GOZO.”
