Among the colorful silks and glazed pottery, we loved to lose ourselves in the voluptuous atmosphere of the spices. Sheathed in my leather dress, I can see myself surrounded by all the mysterious, colorful flacons. You chose one exhaling the irresistible notes of oud and trickled two small drops into the hollow of my neck.

A magnetic, very leathery, spicy perfume. A composition of Egyptian jasmine absolute aroused by a complex of soft, sensual, highly textured balsams – tolu balsam, musk and agarwood – and softened by the warm, aromatic notes of cumin, coriander and saffron. Oud base notes define and complete this sultry, flamboyant fragrance.

Inspired by the forces that created both the basalt rock formations of the ‘Giant’s Causeway’ on the coast of Northern Ireland and in neighbouring Scotland were employed in the shipyards on the banks of the Clyde. Pyroclasm (trans: broken by fire) explores the idea of the intense heat and pressure needed to create the basalt ‘rivets’ of this natural phenomenon and the similar forces involved in fastening the hulls of iron ships.

The Nero collection

“Sacreste comes out from the study of another perfume that I have been trying to realize for eight years. Two years ago I received a trial fragrance by Luca Maffei which was characterized by an incense note I really like. We have been working on that note, finishing it and making it sensual until we arrived at the final project, that I completely love.”
