Our muse Abigail Nováková is the second CATHARZIST woman who breathed life into our new Eau de Parfum.
On her way through the city, despite the cobblestones she conquers in her Jimy Choo stilettos, she walks confidently and with joy. He has the freedom to do and be exactly what she needs. Despite the fact that for years she has been doing every girls dream job for the Czech branch of the world fashion house Harper's Bazaar and at the same time developing personal projects such as the vintage market Second Round, Abigaill is not a bit of a diva. When you meet her, you'll recognize a girl who enjoys life and the small yet essential details. He has balanced life values and is definitely not blowing his head in the wind. Our muse stands firmly on the ground, firmly embraced by her husband, vintage Dior in hand, and describes her scent as an eclectic mix of mysterious frankincense, magical amber and harmonizing, bergamot.
Get to know Abi with all your senses.
Without what human sense can't a woman live without in the city?
Definitely an intuition, we women have this sense, but quite often we suppress it. Maybe with all the hustle and bustle around us it's harder to stop and notice. Maybe even out of fear, we don't want to lose, make a mistake, disappoint others and ourselves. But whenever I followed my intuition, I eventually reached the right point.
What is your favorite sensory experience?
I love all the senses across days and moments. Through tastes, smells and touches, lives, melodies, images from journeys and life situations.
In recent months, the "smells and tastes of my childhood" have been coming back to me nicely, at the same time in a strange way, sometimes I surprise myself that I even have such a memory inside me. But they are beautiful and sometimes funny memories. It is these little things that make up the whole, and these moments remind me how important it is to create memories from the little things and to continue to teach this to my children. Surround yourself with a distinctive fragrance - called life.
Is it possible to find the meaning of life before the age of thirty?
Rather after thirty, that was such a turning point/step, realizing what I really want in life. But my meaning is clearly family, my husband and my nearest and dearest. I am grateful to be surrounded by love, passion, home safety and health. I don't know if age is just the turning point for realizing these pillars or the time of the last two years has taught me that it doesn't have to be evident at all.
If you could be an essential fragrance, what would it be? Why?
I can't be one scent - every day, mood and self-perception are different, I can't say that I should be one scent. But at the moment, if I could be a combination, I choose the mysterious scent of incense, magical amber and harmonizing, fresh bergamot.
One sentence that turned your life upside down.
''Tell me it now with all honesty! '': since then, I changed my life, stopped building castles in the air, lying to myself and others, waiting for everything to resolve itself and embarked on a different life path. And it's all very liberating! The journey was probably a bit more difficult, but I am proud of myself for that.
