At the fore, an emphatic reinterpretation of rose; pure, streamlined, uncompromisingly modern. Blended with a unique extraction of timut pepper, geranium bourbon and a note of cassis for freshness and spice.
Yet a quiet storm lies beneath: vetiver and cedar forms an earthy bed of dark, mysterious leather with IsoButyl Quinoline at the center – an intensely bitter molecule, largely forgotten since its use in the daring perfumery of the Jazz Age.
At once sparkling and sober, a recognisably floral composition is shadowed by a dramatic, yet controlled sensuality.
Les Editions de Parfums Frédéric Malle was founded in 2000 as a result of Frédéric Malle's determination to revive perfumery and restore its former glory. Driven by the desire to elevate the greatest perfumers to the pinnacle of their art, he grants them complete freedom in creation, providing them with exceptional raw materials and imposing no time, budget, or marketing constraints. With over thirty years of experience in the world of perfume, Frédéric Malle is now regarded as the foremost expert in perfumery. Unconventional and an aesthete defying classification, he offers artists the opportunity to stand out, encouraging them to develop their own idiom and celebrating their creativity. Thus, each collaboration gives birth to a masterpiece - a perfume whose creator is proud enough to sign it with their name, for the first time ever.
