Purple Mantra

by Serge De Oliveira
A purple and hypnotic drift, between incense and a drifting mind. Purple Mantra positions itself at a tipping point, between reality and altered perception. A dark room, purple light, incense slowly burning. Time dilates, thoughts become slower, deeper.

The Fragrance

Purple Mantra is set in a quiet room, with purple light and incense slowly burning. It’s the late 1960s, a pivotal moment when some were seeking something beyond excess. The fragrance is inspired by this inner quest, much like The Beatles' journey to India to slow down, meditate, and explore another state of consciousness.From the very opening, an aromatic and slightly green facet emerges, quickly enveloped by something darker and resinous. The effect is immediate, almost introspective, like an atmosphere that cuts out external noise.Then, the fragrance becomes denser. The notes take on a warmer, thicker texture, with a slightly smoky and meditative dimension. The overall impression is one of recentering, as if everything is settling.Over time, Purple Mantra settles into a soft but distinct base, combining resins, musks, and persistent warmth. The signature is enveloping, almost hypnotic.

The brand

Room 1015 is a niche perfume house founded in Paris in 2015 by Michael Partouche, a pharmacist by training and a musician at heart. His passion for psychedelic rock led him to London, where he performed with his band for five years. Back in Paris, he sought a third language, one that would unite the precision of a pharmacist and the energy of a musician: perfume. The name comes from a hotel room. In the 1970s, the Continental Hyatt House in Los Angeles was a haunt for touring rock bands. Legend has it that The Rolling Stones guitarist, Keith Richards, threw a television from room 1015, propelling the hotel into rock history. The fragrance became a symbol of rebellion, a banner inspired by musical trends, philosophies, and alternative spiritualities. An olfactory manifesto oscillating between the punk movement, artificial paradises, the sexual revolution, and transcendental meditation. Each perfume tells a specific story: Cherry Punk begins in Vivienne Westwood's boutique, Hollyrose pays homage to the groupies of Sunset Boulevard, Yesterday imagines The Beatles shaving together in a hotel bathroom. The compositions are signed by Studio Flair, founded by perfumers Amélie Bourgeois and Anne-Sophie Behaghel.
