Taino RDZ Perfumes: A Scented Ode to Puerto Rican Roots
Shadi Samra’s Taino captures the essence of the Caribbean’s radiant spirit and natural harmony. The bright top notes of mandarin, green apple, and coconut evoke the sun-kissed landscapes of Puerto Rico, reflecting the island’s vibrant energy. This fragrance is a tribute to the Taíno’s deep connection to nature and their enduring cultural legacy, blending it with the modern spirit of Philadelphia, where RDZ Parfums is based.
Olfactory Notes
Taino by RDZ Perfumes opens with a bold burst of smoky woods and resinous intensity, evoking the image of sacred tribal fires and ancient rituals. The top notes unfold with dry incense and charred cedar, sharp yet spiritual. As it settles, earthy leather and spices emerge, grounding the fragrance in a primal, tactile warmth—like worn hides and sunbaked earth. In the base, deep amber and balsamic notes linger, softening into a skin-like embrace that feels both ancestral and intimate. Each stage tells a story: from fire and ceremony to soil and memory, Taino is layered, immersive, and deeply atmospheric.
