Animal Cafe

A quiet room lit like late evening, where roasted coffee wraps around you in a thick, dark cloud.

Clove and cinnamon rise like spice from a cup just poured, warm and slightly rough, brushing your skin with a soft bite. As it settles, smoky oud from Papua New Guinea and a discreet animal touch curl underneath, turning the comfort of coffee into something more intimate and daring. You might reach for Animal Cafe on nights when you want your warmth to feel a little wild, a little secret, like a story shared after closing time.

Please Note: Extra Virgo samples are not filled to the top of the vial.

Extra Virgo's fragrances are formulated by H.H. Alex Postiglione, Prince Ne Min Gy of Limbin, grandson of Princess Yadana Nat Mai, Goddess of the Nine Jewels and heir to the last king of Burma. Postiglione was born in Florence and studied art history there, and spent a life cultivating a passion for plants and anthropology. All of the house's fragrances are made at the Castle of Montecucchi in Florence, chief among the family sanctuaries around the world where materials are grown and sourced.

Each one runs between seventy and eighty percent natural material, ages at least three months before blending, and cures another month before it is bottled by hand. The signature flacon is Italian crystal under a black Carrara marble cap. Continuing the family legacy passed on by Princess Yadana Nat Mai, Postiglione is involved with humanitarian and environmental projects aiding Myanmar, its natural biosphere and its people.
