Sora Dora Raphael

Product Overview

Raphael by Sora Dora is a woody floral musk fragrance that balances vibrant spices, elegant florals and velvety woods with remarkable finesse. Modern yet timeless, it pairs the crisp tartness of rhubarb with a luxurious iris heart before settling into a soft, musky base that feels both comforting and sophisticated.

The fragrance opens with sparkling rhubarb, pink pepper and aromatic cardamom, creating a fresh, spicy introduction with a subtle fruity edge. As it develops, iris takes centre stage alongside honeysuckle, magnolia, violet and a touch of nutmeg, adding powdery elegance and delicate floral warmth. In the dry down, musk, cashmeran, ambroxan, vanilla, Atlas cedar, Haitian vetiver, patchouli and Virginia cedar create a smooth, woody foundation that lingers beautifully on the skin. The overall effect is refined, airy and effortlessly elegant.

What Does Raphael Smell Like?

Raphael opens with the crisp freshness of rhubarb, whose tart, juicy character is brightened by the gentle sparkle of pink pepper. Cardamom adds an aromatic warmth that immediately gives the fragrance depth and sophistication.

As it settles, iris becomes the focal point. Soft, powdery and elegant, it is complemented by the creamy floral character of magnolia, the gentle sweetness of honeysuckle and the delicate violet accord. Nutmeg adds a subtle warmth that enhances the floral heart without overwhelming it.

In the dry down, musk and cashmeran create a velvety softness, while ambroxan lends a clean, modern radiance. Vanilla smooths the composition with gentle sweetness, and Atlas cedar, Virginia cedar, Haitian vetiver and patchouli provide a refined woody finish with earthy depth. The result is a woody floral musk fragrance that feels polished, contemporary and quietly luxurious.
