Tauer's L'Air du Désert Marocain in solid perfume: "The base is a skin nourishing and moisterizing solid mixture of organic, cold pressed jojoba oil, pure almond oil, vitamine E and white beewax. [...] The fragrance is more concentrated in the solid perfume than in the l'eau de toilette (15% versus 10%), thus a little bit will last a long while. [...] Lying on the bed, watching the moon rising over the sandy hills of the Saharan desert, he dreamt the fragrance of a Moroccan night." 15g for CHF 39.75, ships to Switzerland, US, France, Austria and Germany.
