In the silence of the Alpine peaks, the scent of juniper berries rises, sharp and fresh, over the crisp bite of winter air. Pine trees stand tall, their resinous warmth mingling with the cold, while the soft whisper of sun-dried hay carries a hint of summer pastures. This fragrance echoes the wild contrast of the mountains, where the chill of snow meets the quiet warmth of the earth.

Santal takes its inspiration from a Sandalwood fragrance originally created in the 1800s which has then been given a distinctive contemporary edge.

Inspired by the serene monasteries of Russia, where silence, snow, and incense create a mystical atmosphere. A blizzard of white aldehydes set the scene, swirling around clove-like pimento, cold/minty hinoki wood, and evergreen pine. The incense here is a cold smolder.

The Via dell’Incenso was an ancient trade route for the passage of incense, spices and other luxury goods from South Arabia and the Horn of Africa to the Mediterranean world. This namesake perfume evokes the storied journey with a dance between chilly incense and cushy cashmeran. The result is a cold fire beneath incense, lemony elemi, brisk pine and charred guaiac wood. Any sharp edges are padded with cashmeran, ambered and velvety.

An emphasis on amber and leather in this extrait version of the original EdP renders this Wolf darker and more dangerous. The higher perfume oil content means that the shadings of vetiver, pine and oakmoss are richer and deeper. The dark sparkle of cardamom holds its ground, providing a tantalising chiaroscuro to this sumptuous composition.

Grande Ile blends the bounty of Madagascar — vanilla, pink pepper berries and black pepper — into a sensual and comforting spicy amber.

Contrasting notes of dry cedar, creamy vanilla, and resinous touches create depth and intrigue. Grande Ile’s enveloping trail unfolds gently on the skin, revealing evolving facets throughout the day. Depending on who you ask, this intriguing beauty moirés between Oriental lilies, a vanilla sauna, and a smoky souk.
