A shot of fruity mezcal collides with precious cacao absolute for a fragrance that’s fiery and intoxicating. Mezcal Chocolate is shaped by Mathis Molinié, digital tastemaker and head chef at Restaurant Philippe in Rouen. It opens with sparkling lime oil and chili pepper, deepened by olibanum from Somalia and an ultra-rare Rhum extract. The cacao’s creaminess melts into a bed of woods: Virginia cedarwood and cypriol oil from India, adding a dark, earthy glow.

Here we consider the relationship between the sea and the art it has inspired.

Crabtree uses his grandfather's pen drawings of luxury yachts, his father's library of nautical fiction and his own tattoos as references. Accord of black ink dominate here; west Indian spiced rum; papers lost and found; the familiar dry accords of leather bound books balanced with warm enigmatic notes of vanilla pipe tobacco. All finely based around a dark heart of birch tar and labdanum.

Vanille Glacé is a marron glacé finished with vanilla in place of chestnut. The sugar isn’t in a hurry. It soaks in one layer at a time, finishing with a glossy sheen. The first impression is brown sugar syrup, with cinnamon drawing the syrup into sharper focus. At its heart, the vanilla leans heavy rather than white and airy. Freshly baked madeleine adds soft warmth, and espresso casts a thin, bitter shadow at the edge of the sweetness.
The drydown gives full reign to blond woods, tonka bean and musk, lending reassurance to the indulgence.

Cuba was the nightlife, casino and party paradise of the 1930s, where Cherigan was already a favourite perfume brand of the local jet set. Fiesta Habana is an ode to the vibrations of Havana nights, enveloped in a swirl of Cuban rum and sweet tobacco. This extrait is enhanced by creamy vanilla and tolu roughed up with haylike tonka bean, spicy immortelle and earthy patchouli.

Perfumer: Kévin Mathys

In this perfume story, the smoky gaiac aroma is gliding across a fresh and boundless ozonic void.

The story is open to interpretation: you can smell the waterproof canvas of the parachute gear in the abstract clean woodiness of the formula; or the air from under the tarpaulin you pull off a glider in its hangar; or think of any scenario involving flying machinery and an unlimited supply of fresh air.

The perfumer wanted to achieve a hazy floating shadow of an aroma, evoking a sensation of endless dark blue space, the calm humming of an engine, and hints of gasoline or machine oil. A worthy heir to the grandpa of all hazy smoky formulas inspired by airplane wings: Guerlain’s Vol de Nuit.
