Master perfumers Ilias Ermenidis & Marine Mercé explain the harmony behind Relique: ‘Built on contrast, the fragrance balances dark woods deepened with leather against a luminous note of raspberry that keeps the composition under tension.’ 

Memoire strikes a chord of nostalgia – familiar but new. Toasted sesame opens the scent with a warm indulgence, intertwined with the creamy floral facets of orange blossom and tuberose. Milky woody notes illuminate a rich base of Dreamwood and copaiba to create a compelling composition in harmony with the wearer.  

‘Each key ingredient was chosen for its creamy, tactile quality’, says master perfumer, Coralie Spicher. ‘In combination, they build a layered sensuality that is felt as much as it is smelled.’  

L'Essence Epure captures the crisp clarity of dawn, enveloped in a rush of sparkling serenity. Refreshing Aquozone opens the scent, softened by woody, everlasting notes of walnut and cedarwood with a dewy floral. At its heart, deep Wolfwood is lifted by Firgood's balanced peppery-citrus mix, while sweet orange blossom ushers in the base, unfolding into a tangy warmth crafted from mandarin and cedarwood. An immaculate lightness brimming with fresh possibility.  

Master perfumer Grégoire Balleydier articulates the art behind the creation of L'Essence Epure: ‘An exploration of tonality atop a primed canvas. Against the smooth foundation of Wolfwood, textures of blue and green are treated like brushwork, creating light, translucent layers that contrast the deeper mineral shades.’ 

Noir Delice is the intimacy of a late night permeated with indulgence and a hazy glow that leaves an air of intrigue. Whisky and oak barrels open with a bold intensity, balanced by the dark brightness of blackberry. The heart breaks into a creamy tonka spiced by black pepper and grounded with earthy moss, concluding with a melody of cistus, incense, cocoa and Ambrox. Rich and spirited; spiced and sensual. 

‘It's an addiction: a warm, gourmand concoction where alluring tones of liquor and fruit blur into something irresistibly intimate, something that draws you back again and again’, says master perfumer, Marine Mercé, on Noir Delice's delectable appeal.
