Salvador Dali

Salvador Dali was naturally interested in fragrances, another mysterious form of artistic expression. He once said, "Of the five senses, the sense of smell is incontestably the one that best conveys a sense of immortality." He himself designed the bottle for the first "Salvador Dali" fragrance, drawing inspiration from his painting "Apparition of the Face of Aphrodite of Knidos." By choosing the nose and lips of Aphrodite, goddess of love and beauty, to embody his first fragrance, Dali demonstrated the central position held by women in his life and art. The fragrance's scent is an accord of jasmine, Salvador Dali's favorite flower, and rose, the favorite flower of Gala, his wife, muse and source of inspiration. Gala also inspired Dali's interest in fragrances, for which she had an intense passion – she owned hundreds of perfume bottles.
