Hasbaya is a city in Lebanon, and Néroli Hasbaya is inspired by a Lebanese dessert called mouhalabieh, a milk pudding flavoured with orange blossom and pistachio. This extrait opens with incandescent neroli, wrapped in nutty’n’buttery hints of pistachio and almond. Orange blossom reveals its full depth in the base, and the creamy richness of sandalwood and Peruvian balsam enhance the enfolding trail of this radiant perfume.
Perfumer: Céline Perdriel
All about this fragrance
Vibe check
The mood is an unhurried afternoon visit, with orange-blossom pastries brought to the table and conversation held at close quarters. Bright neroli gives the sweetness a lifted edge, while almond and sandalwood lend a soft, welcoming presence rather than a sugary flourish.
How to wear
Try a light application in mild spring or autumn weather, allowing the neroli opening to settle into the creamier floral base. One or two sprays on skin are a sensible starting point for this 30% extrait; in warmer temperatures, use less so the nutty sweetness remains balanced.
Who it’s for
For those who enjoy orange blossom with a gourmand inflection, but prefer floral brightness to overt sugar. Its pistachio, bitter almond and creamy woods will appeal to lovers of softly textured scents that sit between citrus florals and dessert-inspired perfumery.

The nose
Céline Perdriel composed Néroli Hasbaya, alongside Burgundy Oud and Ambre Papier for Atelier Materi’s Extraits de Parfum collection. Here, her treatment of orange blossom bridges floral freshness and gourmand comfort, setting luminous neroli against nutty accents and a creamy sandalwood base.
Atelier Materi’s story
Atelier Materi builds its fragrances around natural raw materials, using contrasts to reveal unexpected facets of familiar ingredients. Founded by Véronique Le Bihan, the house combines contemporary composition with an artisanal approach to fragrance and packaging, favouring discreet luxury, creative independence and unhurried development.
Néroli Hasbaya’s concept
Inspired by Lebanon and traditional Levantine pastries, Néroli Hasbaya approaches orange blossom through the restrained sweetness of confectionery. Neroli keeps the opening bright, while pistachio and bitter almond introduce a comforting, nostalgic dimension before the floral heart settles into creamy woods and balsam.
Extra info
Néroli Hasbaya was named a 2025 Fragrance Foundation France finalist in the Best Niche Fragrance—Independent Brands category. Its gold-coloured metal cap distinguishes the Extraits collection from the house’s concrete-capped bottles, with the design referencing Brittany’s golden-hour light.
