Details on Sora Dora Raphael

Raphael is a tribute to the Sora Dora family's patriarch. He was a coal miner with a simple, beautiful joy for life. This fragrance is like a cherished memory on your skin, built around quiet, understated materials. You'll notice delicate powdery facets from violet and a deep, earthy character from iris, recalling his roots. Warm, enveloping musk settles onto the skin as a comforting presence. Soft yet profound, Raphael accompanies life itself, from early mornings of work to love and remembrance.

How does Sora Dora Raphael smell?

Raphael opens with a fresh zing of rhubarb and gentle spice from cardamom and pink pepper. The heart is a soft floral dream of iris, magnolia, and honeysuckle, spiced with a hint of nutmeg. The scent settles into a comforting, powdery base of white musk, creamy vanilla, and smooth woods like cedarwood and cashmeran.

Pleasant, but overshadowed by Sur Tes Lèvres

It’s undeniably wearable and well-crafted, but I can't shake the immediate comparison to Sur Tes Lèvres. Side by side, Raphael feels like a flatter, less dynamic interpretation of a very similar DNA. It’s not a bad scent, but given the similarity, there’s little reason to reach for this over the better alternative.

Soft, fluffy musk

Starts off floral and flowery and then becomes increasingly creamy. Fluffy soft & simply gorgeous! You float on a cloud with it. An extremely likable scent that doesn't offend, but is still special.

Temple thickness 1988

First of all, I love the brand Sora Dora and also own several bottles. This one surprised me a bit, being completely atypical for this brand. Soapy-clean in the first few minutes and then, to my nose, it smells 1:1 like spray ironing starch. Immediate memories of my childhood, watching my mother iron my father's shirts. Absolutely not my thing... What the fragrance did manage, however, is to evoke immediate childhood memories, which is, as we know, sometimes nice too. However, I don't want to smell like ironing starch. For anyone who likes clean, soapy fragrances and wants to smell like starched, ironed laundry, this fragrance is a direct hit.
