Ramon Monegal - Olé
IT’S LIGHT! THE TOUCHING MOMENT!
The unexpected state of euphoria! Precisely the emotion and excitement that this state provokes in me that leads me to exclaim Olé!
I’ve tried to convert this fleeting moment into an unforgettable olfactory caprice, conceived as an abstract composition where my inspiration feeds on art’s freedom and style.
Olé! ... my favorite exclamation! Fusion between folklore and Spanish art.
The great journey of affirmation that arises from the capacity for wonder and admiration that Art provokes!
Instant of euphoria, moment of maximum fulfillment ... powerful emotional state!
My manifesto
Olé!
Olé to art!
Olé to freedom
Olé to passion!
Olé to disinhibition!

Olé to the imagination!
Olé to originality!
Olé to emotion!
Olé to the joy!
And
Olé to life!
Daring, strong and determined, dominated by a feeling of satisfaction, which declares security, discretion and uniqueness

The inkwell
Inspiration, quality and features.
The main source of inspiration for Ramón Monegal, apart from nature, is literature —from the wealth of prose to the succinctness of poetry. He turns words into notes, phrases into chords, stories into compositions, and the ink, the ethyl-lyrical component and of all events, into imagined perfume.
In tribute to his source of inspiration and making use of the most luxurious materials, the perfumer has designed an inkwell, lovingly referred to as Mon encrier, as an iconic perfume recipient, an object of desire, a single bottle that houses all of the soul and essence of his work.
Sticking to his principles that involved using the best materials, he chose semiautomatic handmade glass that allowed him to produce a flacon with a unique body, feel and presence; bakelite —a formaldehyde resin that was widely used in perfumery in the mid-twentieth century and he wanted to recover for its valuable characteristics of feel, sound and neutrality— for the lid and the presentation box; and, finally, bonding together glass and bakelite, a crimp made of zamak, an alloy that combines zinc, aluminium, magnesium and copper, and gives the flacon an unmistakably rich feel and sound.
