THE CORA - THAMEEN

THE CORA - THAMEEN

The STORY: The Cora Sun-Drop diamond is the largest pear-shaped yellow diamond in the world, weighing 110.3 carats. Colored by tiny amounts of nitrogen trapped in carbon molecules, the Cora was formed 1 to 3 billion years ago and was discovered in South Africa in 2010. It was sold in 2011, at an auction in Geneva, for nearly 7 million euros to an anonymous buyer. A new fragrance from the British luxury perfume house Thameen, inspired by this rare gemstone, "The Cora," is a luminous, golden, and multi-faceted spectrum of rare and beautiful ingredients that make it as mesmerizing and timeless as its namesake.

THE FRAGRANCE: A radiance opens this modern classic with an iridescent glow of white jasmine and magnolia shimmering over bright yellow Bulgarian roses and honeyed wisteria. The delicately spiced nutmeg draws light and effortlessly weaves into the floral brilliance of carnation and lily of the valley. Benzoin sharpens the senses before a translucent vanilla glides into the icy base of golden amber, patchouli, and bright white musk. The Cora is a fragrance infused with luminous phosphorescence and softer, brighter accents. Its beauty is both ethereal and magnificent.
