RAPHAEL | Raphael is a fragrance of quiet presence, built around understated materials that linger on the skin like a cherished memory. Soft yet profound, it moves gently through the day, unfolding with tenderness, depth, and warmth.
In the opening, cardamom essence, pink pepper extract, and rhubarb create a subtle brightness with a softly spiced edge. At the heart, nutmeg essence, magnolia, honeysuckle, and iris bring a delicate floral warmth grounded by an elegant earthiness. As it settles, vetiver from Haiti, vanilla, white musks, Atlas and Virginia cedarwood, cashmeran, patchouli essence, and ambroxan create a comforting, lasting trail that feels intimate and quietly memorable.
Raphael is a fragrance that belongs to no single moment. It accompanies the rhythm of life itself—morning work, unexpected encounters, love, remembrance, and the passing of time.

About Sora Dora
Sora Dora is a French fragrance house shaped by four generations of family history, botanical passion, and the courage to pursue a dream. Its story begins with Antoine Sora Dora, who left his native Portugal for Provence in 1920 and discovered a world of lavender, jasmine, fresh earth, fruit trees, and aromatic plants.
After working in the mines, Antoine became head gardener at a jasmine farm near Grasse, where he began experimenting with perfume alongside its owner. He later created his first fragrance and passed his knowledge, sensitivity, and exacting craftsmanship to his family.
Today, every Sora Dora creation reflects the emotion of Antoine’s journey—a tribute to nature, perseverance, and a life transformed through scent.
Overall rating: 5.0 / 5 from 8 reviews.
