A towering, skyscraper-sized beehive, dripping with honey. See the bee, be the bee. That’s you, waggling your cute black’n’yellow striped booty in a dance through a golden flow of labdanum and leathery orange blossom with powdery mini-explosions of mimosa, tonka and heliotrope. Buzz!

Perfumer: Tomoo Inaba

Rich and gothic Moth starts with a heavy dose of dark spices to jolt your senses before settling into a dusting of honey-sweet rose and powdery florals. Slowly, it tests its wings, taking flight on an exotic journey of nagarmotha, guaiac wood and patchouli. Beneath it all lingers a smoky undertone that serves as a constant reminder to fluttering creatures of the danger in the tantalizing flame.

Named after a rare, indigenous red grape variety from the French Jura, this sensual, enveloping iris composition is built on an overdose of Bavarian iris germanica Danner. This varietal is characterized by extreme powderiness and strength. Its fruity-sweet and floral-violet notes are enriched with rare Piedmontese hazelnut extract, tonka bean absolute and sandalwood oil for depth and drama. Cat’s paw softness with all claws hidden.

Lances is a Spanish word that means the fleeting but decisive moments that change everything ever after. Risks are taken, character is forged. This extrait embodies this risk and reward dynamic with the high-contrast tension between hazelnut and four varieties of lavender. The effect is intriguingly ambiguous, simultaneously pulled towards the gourmand with the help of vanilla and sandalwood, while maintaining an aromatic aloofness thanks to the lavender and cedarwood.

Perfumer: Jean-Christophe Hérault

Olfactory opulance conjures the Palace of Versailles in its heyday when Louis XIV and his Court would amble the Grand Orangery to delight in the flowering orange trees warmed by bonfires. This is a bright orange blossom with a warm, woody background, with notes of orange blossom absolute, pomegranate, honey and firewood smoke.

Perfumer: Dominique Moellhausen

The spirited country girl arrives in the bustle of the city, determined to change her status to “anything but innocent”. That’s Sweet Lure, bubbling with naughty possibilities. Cinnamon and lily-of-the-valley swirl in a bamboozling haze of neroli and vanilla, keeping things alluring but fun.

Sandalwood enriched by cedarwood and enhanced by just-roasted hazelnut. Tender powdered heliotrope lightens for a nuanced sweetness that’s somewhat leatherey. While a blend of driftwood and sea salt styles this fragrance to delicious a cool pirate finish.

971 is the international phone code for the United Arab Emirates, a shorthand for the heritage and spirit of the UAE. The inspiration for 971 comes directly from traditions of the homeland: dates, a symbol of Emirati hospitality and abundance; honey, reflecting sweetness and generosity; and cinnamon, adding warmth and spice reminiscent of local flavors. Bold, yet comforting.

El Caminante, Spanish for “the wanderer”, is a nomadic fragrance that pays tribute to the flâneur’s stroll, the urban pilgrimage in search of self-knowledge. This extrait is an invitation to travel, to seek experiences, thanks to the propulsive cadence of Ceylon black tea and a lightly smoked suede. The experiences along the way include cardamom and saffron, with fruity nuances of dried plum, date and honey. Luxurious iris absolute adds depth, accompanied by vetiver, sandalwood, tonka bean and labdanum.
