White elephants are considered auspicious in Thai culture, possessing distinctive characteristics such as white eyes, white palate, white nails, white hair, white tail hair, and a lighter skin tone than typical elephants, ranging from pale pink to creamy white. Although called white elephants, they are not actually albino in the biological sense, but rather a rare and exceptional trait.
For this collection, the perfumer chose the White Elephant as the main inspiration, as it is a significant and prominent symbol of Thailand, deeply rooted in specific legends and beliefs.
According to Thai legend, white elephants symbolize gods and good fortune. One story states that white elephants are the favorite animals of Indra, the supreme deity of the heavens in Buddhism. White elephants are often worshipped in important rituals to pray for prosperity and peace.
Famous tales tell of white elephants appearing during times of crisis, such as war or disaster, bringing good fortune and peace. Their appearance during such times is often said to bring positive changes, such as peace negotiations or post-disaster recovery.
One well-known story involves a king who saw a white elephant in a dream, guiding him to a land of resources and prosperity, symbolizing a new beginning and success in his reign. Additionally, white elephants are believed to possess healing powers and bring good fortune to those who respect them, thus symbolizing luck and prosperity in life.
In Thai history and culture, white elephants represent purity, elegance, and grandeur, especially in the royal court where they symbolize the Kingdom of Siam and often appear in important royal ceremonies and rituals representing auspiciousness and national greatness.
The fragrance in this collection therefore conveys the purity and elegance of the white elephant, transmitting the auspiciousness and sacred power from Thai legend and history in a delicate and contemporary way, allowing those who experience it to feel elegance and good fortune at all times.
For the perfumer, White Elephant symbolizes good fortune and peace in life. This fragrance is designed with a strong yet soft animalic leather scent to convey the elegance and auspicious power truly represented by the white elephant.
The Spirit of the White Elephant: The fragrance opens with a milky note, like sweet, warm milk, and soft caramel melting into it, symbolizing the gentleness and purity of the white elephant in nature. The sweetness is not cloying, but rather delicate, deep, and luxurious.
The heart note is adorned with luxurious flowers such as Jasmine, Rose, and Magnolia, emitting a sweet and delicate aroma, like the gentle and elegant touch of wild life hidden behind the strength of the elephant. Vanilla adds a touch of softness to the fragrance.
The base note is a raw leathery scent, representing the beautiful skin of the white elephant, blended with Indole, which adds depth and a seductive, mysterious charm. Sandalwood enhances the base note, creating an elegant, deep, stable, and auspiciously powerful atmosphere.
