A TRUE GEM OF MOROCCAN LUXURY ARTISTRY

Under the artistic direction of a visionary Italo-Moroccan duo, the brand is infused with a multicultural sensibility and a bold sense of modernity. Alongside some of Morocco’s finest design talents, they conceived the very first bottle and shaped the poetic universe of Marrakech Impérial.

Their gift for refined simplicity and understated elegance sets the path for future creations, where tradition and innovation coexist in harmony, offering a sensory experience that celebrates beauty, craftsmanship, and culture.
THE GENIUS OF MAALLEMS, THE ART OF SYMBOL AND MOROCCAN CREATION
#1
More than a divine symbol, a true trace of Moroccan history, the first bottle from the Maison Marrakech Impérial draws its inspiration from the genius of the Maallems (Moroccan craftsmen) and the art of creating symbols, rosettes and
Arabo-Oriental patterns, true gems of Moroccan architecture.
#2
The bottle’s base, inspired by the geometric shape of the sumptuous Bab Agnaou doorway in Marrakech's Kasbah, of royal palatial complexity, rises to a shoulder adorned with brilliant gilding that reflects the reverse of the cap. This subtly light ornament expresses the vernacular and natural effects of the wind blowing across the sand dunes of the seemingly endless Moroccan Sahara desert.
#3
The cap, in the shape of a truncated dome echoing ancient imperial palaces, is deconstructed out of necessity to evoke an incipient sense of incompleteness, evoking the incredible history of the succession of Sultan-builders who created the masterpiece that is Marrakech.
#4
A symbol of times gone by, the imprint left on the cap takes us straight to the sumptuous
Palmeraie of Marrakech, whose palm tree motifs take the form of a fountain evoking the importance of water in the birth of the red city's oasis, articulated and integrated into forms derived from the art of zellige and Moroccan weaving.
#5
A true land of light, the color of the Maison Marrakech impérial bottle revives the emotions of that fleeting moment in the mythical Golden Hour of the Moroccan desert, that magical light between amber darkness and the color of gold.
