The chosen work

Brushstrokes of Mediterranean Perfume
from the paintings of Josep Delgado

El perfum éThe perfume is a tool full of sensations, not directly be involved in areas where emotions come to the surface . That's why in 2009 I started this journey , to find out how to create and use the perfume as a link with the different cultural and artisitc areas , using its unique language.

MediterràniaSens born as a union of the painting of Josep Delgado and the creative perfume of El Jardí Secret .
The eighteen Mediterranean pictures, they were the source of inspiration for the creation of each of the eighteen initial perfumes. His compositions do not seek to complement or translate the painting, are purely an expressions of my own perception .

For this limited edition I have chosen five of the most significant perfumes that move away from the cliché of "pleasant perfume",  to play the role of “Storyteller”.
