Bois d'Ombrie

The top note combines whisky and cognac with a wild-carrot note. At the heart, the tanned-leather accord is sprinkled with iris and copahu-balm essence. The dense, woody drydown weds vetiver, tobacco, opoponax, myrrh and patchouli.

Sienne l'Hiver

Sat, 08 Mar 2008 01:16:56 +0100

In the opening, green notes of violet leaves and fern blend with geranium. At the heart, iris rhizome, oliban and mimosa meet a white-truffle accord and a black-olive accord. The earthy, woodsy drydown brings together papyrus root, saint-wood, cedar-wood, French straw essence, labdanum, white musk and benzoin.

Paestum Rose

A spicy opening (Comoran black pepper, Argentinean pink pepper, Ceylonese cinnamon and Egyptian coriander) leads into a heart of rose wrapped in frankincense. The trail unveils an alliance of woods, balms and resins. Fragrance designer: Bertrand Duchaufour.

Eau d'Italie

Sat, 08 Mar 2008 01:13:45 +0100

Eau d’Italie takes off with an alliance of bergamot and frankincense. Then the scent goes more floral, with the close evoking the smells of the verdant cliffs of Amalfi. Parfumeur : Bertrand Duchaufour.
