Moena 12 I 69

Moena 12 I 69 by Carta is a Oriental Woody fragrance for women and men. Moena 12 I 69 was launched in 2017. The nose behind this fragrance is Heather D'Angelo. The fragrance features Tea, Woody Notes, Moss, Tobacco Leaf and Ginger. The first offering from Carta, Moena 12I69, is the first ever fragrance to feature Moena Alcanfor, a rare essential oil steam-distilled from the lateral branches and leaves of Moena trees. The numbers in the fragrance name correspond to the geographical coordinates where the oil is sourced: the Tambopata Province of the Peruvian Amazon at 12.58° South, 69.19° West. A close botanical relative to the highly endangered rosewood (another Amazonian tree popular for fragrance), Moena Alcanfor is a new sustainable alternative and it ushers in a promising future for the region’s delicate ecosystem. Its woodsy aroma ignites emotions, purifies and uplifts the spirit, and eases anxiety. Moena 12I69 features notes of wild Peruvian moena, soaked moss, golden ginger, brewed tea, tobacco leaves and redolent woods. A portion of the proceeds from Moena 12I69 sales are returned to Camino Verde, the only organization in the world distilling Moena Alcanfor. Moena 12I69 is available as a 50 ml extrait de parfum made in small batches and bottled to order. The fragrance was first released in 2017 in a limited edition of 300 bottles.
