To showcase this exceptional marriage, AFFINESSENCE has combined two types of VANILLA (Tahitian Vanilla Absolute, intensely fragranced with leather overtones and the sweet scent of Madagascan Vanilla Absolute) and blended them with an exquisite alter ego: Siamese BENZOIN, a fragrant Resin originating in Laos, highly valued for its balsamic and almond notes.
As Ambroxan, enfolded in Tonka Bean and Moroccan and Chinese Cedar, exudes its carnal notes, the Benzoin transcends the Vanilla with its intoxicating scent as if to better diffuse its spellbinding trail. Perfumer : Corine CACHEN.

Fragrance story: Rolling in Love is a musc de peau, capturing the sensation of feeling so high on love that it seems to almost “get under the skin.” Working with perfumer Pascal Gaurin, Kilian Hennessy took an entirely new direction. Rolling in Love is more direct and less faceted than his previous fragrances—almost “monochromatic” in its focused representation of a single emotion. Rolling in Love is a “white” scent, layering different textures along the scent’s trail with notes of ambrette seeds, almond milk, iris, and musk.
Key notes: Almond milk, iris, musk.
Olfactive Family: Narcotics – From rose to tuberose, from orange blossom to gardenia… Kilian flowers are composed like a narcotic dependence.
7753 stands for the dimensions of Mona Lisa painting for this perfume is not the perfume of an image, nor the mere perfume of a woman past – is the perfume of the woman. It is the scent of an emotion, of this undecipherable glance, of her unexplainable beauty, of her immersive power and her drawing us in. It is the perfume of our own enthrallment. A hidden number for a hidden smile.
A glimmering glance of bright Citruses, the elusive Mona one descries through a sfumato of Vetiver and Galbanum. Voluptuous Tuberose and Heliotrope virtuous.
'Tis a smile alluring with an air of Spices.
Create an explosion!
A rose diffracted into a scent of phenomenal power. An olfactory explosion with an intense emotional charge. An exhilaration of pure energy, climaxing into intoxication. An extraordinary fragrance in the true sense of the word.
From the first moment, rose rushes to the head and brings colour to the cheeks. As explosive as it is elusive, it expresses itself forcefully and fully embraces its ambiguities. Bright, with its shadows. Feminine and masculine. Soft, but ruthless. Like an adrenalin rush, Atomic Rose shows its extravagance to exalt its wearer.
An explosive equation
A Rose with the potency of Hedione HC. Driven by the iconic ingredient of the Carnal Blends collection, the queen of flowers enters another dimension. Heightened and magnified, it enacts its own revolution in an absolute and uncompromising fragrance.
Carnal Blends, intoxicating essences
Can perfume increase our power of attraction? For a long time, we have only been able to trust in our intuition to confirm this. Science did not recognise that scents have the capacity to trigger the production of sex hormones. Then a team of researchers from Bochum University in Germany proved that some odorous molecules can activate regions of the brain connected to libido. This singular link between scents, pleasure and sexuality is at the core of the Carnal Blends collection. This collection is firmly transgressive and plays on bold combinations to highlight its carnal notes with one aim in mind: to trigger emotions and heighten sexual attraction.
What is its secret ingredient?
Hedione HC; a molecule which is of floral origin, a compound found in the heart notes of jasmine and magnolia, that provides radiant and airy power to a fragrance. Hedione HC also activates a region of the brain related to pleasure and increased libido. Initio has made it the signature of Carnal Blends. This sensually open collection boasts fragrances that are much more than perfume. Sensual potions with immediate appeal that speak to our most unconscious and primal depths. An ode to our animality…
This is the fifth perfume Antoine Lie has made for Puredistance and just like his other creations for Puredistance, GOLD exactly matches the feeling we had in heart. We have given Antoine carte blanche to use the very best ingredients and so he did. GOLD is a veritable feast of the rarest and most precious natural ingredients.
Perfume Extrait: 36% perfume oil.
Intense and subtle at once – Kalan surprises with a sparkling opening, blending black pepper and spices with fresh notes of blood orange. The fragrance is embodied through a heart of orange blossom and lavender, while it evolves as facets of white sandalwood unfold and drape into notes of moss and precious wood.
A beautifully blended elixir that personifies the complex dimensions of a woman.
Top notes of Bergamot and Carnation represent her classy sophistication juxtaposed by Sichuan Pepper to accentuate her sassy side. Heart notes of Rose and Ambre 84 DL soften the tone.
Base notes of warm, rich Indian Sandalwood couple with tenacious Labdanum to round out this well-balanced mixture. Garnished with highly desired Benzoin, this unique aroma embodies the true value of its components.
Inspired by the Pavillion de la Guyane (Paris).
Bewitching, exquisite and elegant.
