Perfumer : Sonia Constant (Givaudan)
Tumultu is carnal. It loves skin and invites nudity. A disturbing vapour that invites abandon.
Perfumer : Jacques Huclier (Givaudan)
Dom Rosa is romantic. Intoxication of festive pleasures. Bubbly, sensitive character. Sometimes a victim of love.
Perfumer : Sonia Constant (Givaudan)
Ile Pourpre derives from the imagination. It takes you on a stationary journey to new scents. Succumb to its fresh and carnal sensuality.

The perfume of an oneiric reality For this new opus, the duo has not changed, nor the creative osmosis between Marc-Antoine Barrois and Quentin Bisch, but the destination is elsewhere. Creating an elegant and unexpected harmony around a quartet of mandarin, violet, immortelle and suede, the two fellow artists have dreamt of this new planet: Ganymede, the rocky satellite of Jupiter discovered in 1610 by Galileo, is both luminous and covered with salt-water oceans. It acquired its name from Greek mythology: a young man, Ganymede, was kidnapped by gods who had been so enthralled by his beauty that he was offered immortality.
Composed by perfumer Quentin Bisch, Ganymede once again makes use of the suede-leathery notes that had made B683 a beautiful classic. This time though, the artists emancipated from traditional codes to take us somewhere else, towards aluminous and fluid elegance. Those leather notes become softer, gaining lightness and gentleness in contact with the fragrance of violet. The mandarin smell brings its full vivacity and its acidic essence. The latter gives the tone and verticality of the fragrance from the very start. Yet opposing it, the immortelle is its counterpoint and raises the scented harmony with its double-sided fragrance, at times mineral, at other times salty. The entire composition plays with contrasts and oppositions.
The notes answer one another in a permanent conversation drawing a new olfactory map on the skin, on the revers of a cashmere jacket, or even right there, next to the buttons of the sleeves, on the wrist. If it could be summed up into one single image, it would be a compass : north for the zested liveliness of the mandarin to which the south would answer with the everlasting flower and to highlight this olfactory frame, the density of suede notes on the west would balance the subtle and delicate florality of the violet on the east. Those are four directions for a perfumed journey to a new imaginary world and new codes of elegance. The notes of this eau de parfum are, at the top : Mandarina from Italy essence heart Orpur, safran ; at the heart : violet, Chinese osmanthus absolute Orpur ; at the base Akigalawood and Immortelle absolute.
The fragrances of the Maison MARC-ANTOINE BARROIS are the result of the meeting of two young designers. One is a couturier, the other a perfumer. Their childhood memories brought them together. Remembering captivating smells; of the leather from an elegant attaché case or an immaculate desk blotter; of the distinct smells of wood during the regular gather-ring of fuel to warm the family home. The artistic skills of the former and the olfactory talent of the latter together sparked the magic of these beautiful fragrances. The perfumes and candles are made in France.
An olfactive portrayal of the 1920s bohemian culture, this woody and leather fragrance exudes an air of exquisite audacity.

An olfactive portrayal of the 1920s cultural liberation, this floral fragrance is poised with a playful refinement.
Top note: Jasmine
Heart note: Craven a Tobacco, Vanilla

VAST. UNTETHERED. DRIVEN.
Freedom comes from within, the desert heart of the west wrapped in leather. It moves forward, untethered, through the still air of wide-open space. Dust on wind, skin on skin, Ombré Leather reveals itself like a landscape in layers, where stretches of rock transform into sunrise blonde low on the horizon.
WITH ITS ELEGANT AND REFINED HEART OF NATURAL VETIVER SUPERBLY BLENDED WITH SUN-DRENCHED CITRUS, RICH SPICES AND PRIZED WOODS, TOM FORD GREY VETIVER CAPTURES THE ESSENCE OF DEBONAIR, CHARISMATIC AND PROVOCATIVE MASCULINITY.
Encapsulating the timeless style and grace of haute couture, Heritage is a luxurious jasmine perfume of remarkable depth and projection. A delicate but defiant powdery vintage floral with a crisp, fresh opening of bergamot that leans into the majesty of transcendental frankincense. Comforting warmth is derived from quintessential cedarwood and balsamic sandalwood, while creamy vanilla and a touch of natural Oud create an enduring halo of sophistication and poise.

A refreshing encounter with nature, this fougère fragrance epitomises the vitality of verdant valleys. Lively, crisp and clean, Oud Vert is a signature summer scent with an eminently relaxed composure that renders it perennial. Energetic top notes herald the arrival of zesty Mediterranean bergamot fused with Madagascan ginger and Sri Lankan cardamom. Warming geranium offers balance paired with a skin-synergistic musk that lingers with intent.
Fruity, flirty and floral, Oud Jaune is a sparkling, sunshine-infused fragrance famed for transporting the wearer to faraway shores. Exotic monoi, elegant ylang-ylang and juicy pineapple evoke a tropical aura before submitting to a resplendent heart of white florals, jasmine and orange blossom. A sumptuously deep and decadent drydown lends a sensual and long-lasting milky, vanilla and musky base to this intoxicating, warm floral perfume.
Refined, sultry sophistication in fragrance form, the dark knight of the Shades Collection evokes the super-charged adrenaline of life in the fast lane. Exhilarating and enigmatic, a masterclass in the transition of animalistic ingredients into a mesmerising complex blend of spicy florals, creamy musks and smoky-sweet resins. Oud Noir is a full-throttle fragrance full of depth yet supremely and tantalisingly elegant.
The Scoop
The concept of “sacred geometry, ” the inspiration behind Oud For Greatness, is that recurring symbols and motifs- including the sacred scent of oud- are so powerful and holy that they are imbued with these hidden connections to the world at large, transcending the material plane to align those who smell it with the vibrations of the universe. In other words, experiencing the true scent of oud is a tonic for physical, emotional, and spiritual health. With Oud For Greatness, Initio taps into that hidden source of power, delivering a vibrant, sensual, richly spicy fragrance deeply imbued with oud from beginning to end. It’s a highly concentrated blend of pure, natural agarwood oil and natural oud wood, a rich accord that melds the dark, spicy, sweet, and smoky characteristics of this precious substance into an impossibly complex elixir, both energetic and contemplative, narcotic and seductive. An additional burst of savory spice comes by way of a rich blend of saffron and nutmeg, while bright lavender pushes it towards the sexy and masculine- though make no mistake, this scent is devastatingly sexy on men and women alike. While it might seem inexact to say that a fragrance offers something for everyone, we don’t know how else to describe Oud For Greatness- we suppose a perfume this in tune with the hidden patterns of the world ought to smell this downright incredible.
