Step into the luminous world of Impadia, a fragrance that captures the fleeting magic of Paris bathed in soft morning light and glowing evening hues. Born from the harmony between nature and city, this scent from BDK is an ode to beauty, emotion, and timeless elegance – crafted to leave a lasting impression on both skin and soul.
Impadia captures that precious moment of the day when Paris transforms into an abstract painting—a symphony of color. The Parisian sky blooms in endless shades of pink and orange, subtly revealing the beauty woven between city and nature. From radiant morning to sultry evening, the first and final sunbeams
highlight both the city’s robust architecture and its lush gardens.
Rhythm of light
Throughout the day, the city pulses to the rhythm of the sun— a cloak of light. Promising, liberating, sensual; in Paris, strength and expression melt into one. And just as generous and abundant as this sun-drenched day, Impadia envelops the skin with an addictive, sensual aura, evoking those timeless moments when everything seems to stand still.
Sensual embrace
With a sparkling top note and a warm base, Impadia invites a unique and personal experience, where the wearer becomes the fragile link between city and nature, light and emotion. Capturing the rose in a fresh and voluptuous bouquet, Impadia continues the vision of BDK Parfums— a contemporary interpretation of Parisian perfumery, perfectly in tune with the present.
Fragrance details
The fragrance opens with a vibrant blend of mandarin integral from Italy (Orpur™) and colorless bergamot oil, creating a zesty and luminous first impression. These citrus notes are complemented by the crisp sweetness of a pear accord, the spicy warmth of ginger CO₂ extract, and the resinous depth of olibanum oil from Somalia (Orpur™). At its heart, Impadia reveals a rich floral bouquet composed of Bulgarian rose oil (Orpur™) and Turkish rose absolute (Orpur™), infused with the delicate sensuality of orange blossom absolute sourced from North Africa (Orpur™). This romantic core adds both elegance and intensity to the composition. The base is warm and enveloping, built on the opulent richness of Madagascan vanilla absolute (Orpur™), combined with a creamy praline accord that adds a touch of sweetness. Peru balsam resinoid (washed) deepens the scent with its balsamic character, while Akigalawood™ brings a spicy, woody complexity. Finally, soft sandalwood and musk complete the fragrance with a smooth, lingering sensuality.
Creator’s vision
“For me, Impadia embodies the intersection between nature and city—an ode to the gardens that come alive each spring, transforming the urban landscape. It’s a vertical dialogue, where blooming flowers’ colors mingle with the sky that welcomes them. Not the tangible elements like buildings or streets, but what nature contributes to the city: shades of pink and orange, a renewed energy, a romantic and enchanting breath that takes over the urban space. Impadia expresses this duality: luxurious and rich, yet bright and refined. The composition is concise but powerful—
and above all, irresistibly addictive. We aimed to capture the woody depth of the flower while emphasizing the lively freshness of mandarin and bergamot— those sparkling citrus notes reminiscent of the first morning light.
It’s an abstract and poetic vision of the city, where gardens, the sky, and the horizon blend into a unique, almost magical olfactory experience.” David Benedek
Crafted beauty
“My intent was to create a perfume that expresses beauty in its purest form. The starting point was an irresistible and addictive blend of Bulgarian and Turkish roses, each velvety petal whispering sensuality. I enriched this accord with the lush depth of Madagascan vanilla, subtly intertwined with creamy praline for a delicious sweetness. To heighten this luxurious experience, I introduced a striking duo of premium ingredients: the exclusive Akigalawood™—infusing the fragrance with a bold, spicy, woody character—perfectly balanced by the vibrant, addictive, and ultra-sensual notes of Ambrofix™. This combination results in a perfume that not only enchants the senses but leaves an indelible impression— an ode to beauty in all its facets.” Jordi Fernandez
