“When I first encountered Red Island, the connection between the fragrance and the landscape of Madagascar was immediately apparent - both vivid, layered and atmospheric. In creating the artworks, I wanted to honour the origin of the ingredients, drawing inspiration from Madagascar’s diverse and rich environment: the forest, the ocean, and the red earth, whose colours vary wonderfully in the light, from sunrise to sunset.”
