Maison Crivelli Citrus Batikanga Eau de Parfum is a vivid citrus with a daring twist, inspired by the shock of tasting an icy bergamot cocktail brightened with chilli in a bustling tropical market. Zesty bergamot glitters at the start, lifted by a cool snap of cardamom, before a juicy heart ripples with pomelo and tart rhubarb. As it warms, vetiver and myrrh add texture and depth, creating a rhythmic citrus spicy woody signature that feels energetic, modern, and effortlessly unisex for daytime brightness and warm evenings alike.

Story and Positioning
Citrus Batikanga translates the memory of sipping a chilli-spiked citrus cocktail in a colorful market into smell, contrasting sparkling bergamot and cardamom with the warmth of vetiver and myrrh for a crisp yet sensual trail. It sits within Maison Crivelli’s Eaux de Parfum collection that frames real-life adventures with bold contrasts and tactile sensations. If you enjoy bright citruses with a spicy accent, consider it alongside bitter citrus styles with mineral woods for a similar mood while remaining more textured and adventurous.
Bottle and Design
The fragrance is presented in a clear cylindrical bottle whose clean white label underscores the house’s minimalist aesthetic. A weighty Zamac cap bears the Maison Crivelli monogram and is left deliberately unpolished, so no two caps are exactly the same. Presentation favors mindful luxury with handmade plastic-free boxes and formulas crafted in France.
