Perfume

A captivating cardamom, coated with a tad of lavender, evaporating in woody wisps of cedarwood and patchouli.

Native to the region of Abar in India, cardamom is a reed-like plant whose green or black capsules protect camphoraceous and aromatic scented seeds. Introduced into Europe by Alexander the Great who brought it back from his conquest, the "Queen of Spices" quickly found its place in royal gastronomy. It is mentioned in apothecaries’ accounts of the House of Savoy, dating from the 14th century. In perfumery, cardamom brings a characteristic vibration to the top notes; an explosion of freshness that shivers on the skin. Sniff our Cardamom to get the gist of it.

An androgynous and monochromatic leather dried by Atlas and Virginia Cedarwoods. The scent to be seen during Fashion Week.

The leather note in perfumery is quite recent as it refers to the smell of the boots worb by Russian soldiers whose leather was proofed with birch tar. Leather usually has two facets, an animalic one made with castoreum or certain woods such as Atlas Cedarwood; and a smoky one created with pyrogenic essences such as cade, styrax or birch tar. Some synthetic materials such as IBQ or Suederal can amp up its texture, but we used Black Oud instead, known for its naturally… leathery smell.

Ingredients: Alcohol denatured, Parfum (Fragramce), Aqua, Limonene, Alpha-Isomethyl, Ionone, Linalool, Geraniol, Citral, Citeonellol.

A deep patchouli exalted by a duo of cocoa and cashmeran.

Patchouli is a plant from Indonesia whose leaves, when distilled, yield an essence with a woody, damp, earthy, even camphoraceous and cocoa-like odour. Its scent arrived in Europe via trunks filled with shawls from India; patchouli having insecticidal properties, it would be wrapped around precious fabrics to protect them from moths. It fell into disuse before the second half of the 20th century but was brought back to the forefront by American hippies for its supposed aphrodisiac properties. It is one of the most important raw materials in perfumery, since it allows to structure a composition, to bring complexity or depth. Our Patchouli brings out all its facets with the help of cashmeran and a rare and regressive cocoa extract.

Ingredients: Alcohol denatured, Parfum (Fragramce), Aqua, Limonene, Citeonellol, Linalool, Benzyl Benzoate, Cinnamal, Benzyl Cinnamate, Eugenol, Geraniol, Citral, Isoeugenol.

A leathery and elegant saffron streaked with spices and vanilla.

Saffron is the pistil of the Crocus Sativus. Cultivated in Persia for more than 3500 years for its vibrant colour and its leathery, herbaceous fragrance, saffron has spread around the Mediterranean and travelled as far as the courts of Europe, China and the Indian sub-continent where it always had a very strong symbolic value. Assimilated to gold and eternal life by the Greeks, to the flame of knowledge by the Hindus and the Buddhists, this "red gold" gives our Safran its affirmed character and an impression of supple and elegant leather.

Ingredients: Alcohol denatured, Parfum (Fragramce), Aqua, Limonene, Alpha-isomthyl Ionone, Benzyl Salicylate, Linalool, Eugenol, Benzyl Benzoate, Benzyl Cinnamate, Citeonellol, Geraniol, Citral, Evernia Prunastri (Oak Moss) Extract, Benzyl Alcohol.

 An addictive sandalwood lit up by a delicate ylang and notes of roasted cumin.

Native to Southern India, sandalwood is a tree whose main varieties in perfumery now come from Australia, New Caledonia, Sri Lanka and Tanzania. Known as the "King of the Woods", sandalwood plays an important role in Hindu rituals where it is used for burials, temple construction and incense sticks. Alpha-Santalol, one of its main molecules, is responsible for the therapeutic virtues attributed to it in traditional Chinese, Tibetan and Ayurvedic medicine, while Beta Santalol, a milky molecule reminiscent of madeleines and amaretto, has made it useful in perfumes. It is a Sandalwood Album from Australia that gives our Santal its slightly creamy facet.

Ingredients: Alcohol denatured, Parfum (Fragramce), Aqua, Alpha-isomthyl Ionone, Hexyl Cinnama, Linalool, Benzyl Salicylate, Eugenol, Limonene , Cirtonellol, Cinnamal, Geraniol, Citral, Benzyl Benzoate, Farnesol, Amyl Cinnamal.

A treacly vanilla contrasted by smoky notes of cade. A leathery note of styrax enhancing the smoky nuances of the vanilla absolute.

Vanilla has a long history... Revered by the Totonac, an Amerindian people, as a sign of invincible love.  For this Vanille, they opted for a Bourbon vanilla absolute, with woody and smoky undertones more faithful to the smell of the "sheath".

A fresh, green and joyous yuzu peppered with a sparkly and lively mandarin. Wellness interlude in the midst of a hectic afternoon.

Yuzu is a citrus resulting from the hybridisation of an ichang papeda lemon and a bitter mandarin. Although it is now a staple condiment on gourmet tables, it has been used for nearly 1300 years and was imported into Japan, now its leading producer, during the Tang dynasty (618-907). In perfumery, yuzu brings a distinctive bitterness to the top notes without losing its pulpiness, a particularity enhanced by a bouquet of aldehydes and green citrus in our Yuzu.

Ingredients: Alcohol denatured, Parfum (Fragramce), Aqua, Limonene, Citral, Citronellol, Limalool, Oak Moss Extract, Geraniol, Benzyl Alcohol, Isoeugenol.

An energizing splash of bitter leaves and aquatic herbs.

Mate is the traditional beverage of the Tupi-Guarani Indians made from the leaves of the ilex paraguariensis tree. Called mate by the conquistadors, from the Quechua name of the calabash used to prepare it (mati), mate has been known in Central America for thousands of years. Used for its purifying and energizing properties but also by shamans for divination rituals, mate was severely condemned by the Church in the 17th century, which did not curb its use. Its arrival in perfumery is quite recent and classifies it in the herbaceous notes alongside hay and tea, which is why we’ve lifted it with a touch of aquatic mint and a green fig accord.

An ambery opoponax brimming with cistus and tonka bean.

Opoponax like olibanum and myrrh, is a resin, extracted from a certain species of shrubs of the Commiphora genus, growing from the Middle-East to East Africa. Its scent is balsamic, round, sweet and is often used to build amber accords. Coupled with olibanum, its toffeed facet gives our Opoponax its characteristically gourmand and sparkling opening.

Sensual woods wrapped in an intense rose, like a line of kohl.

Oud is the fragrant resin produced by certain trees of the Aquilaria genus to protect themselves against the spread of a fungus. Used in India and the Arabian Peninsula since ancient times, oud appears in the Bible as a funeral perfume while in China, this "eagle wood" is still used in traditional medicine to activate the circulation of qi. Now threatened by overexploitation, its cultivation, sale and use are rigorously controlled. The oud we use has a CITES certificate, guaranteeing that its production and sale do not harm the conservation of biodiversity and is based on the sustainable use of wild species.
