  • Aromagroups:
  • spicy

White is a bright and lively fragrance built around the friction between hot spices and suave florals. The cinnamon, clove and cardamom opening suggests candied red hots, which makes it all the more surprising when the melange of rose de Mai and lily of the valley softly asserts itself. The undertone of tagete, with its bitter herbalness, keeps White from getting too “pretty-pretty”.

Perfumer: Pierre Guéros

“ExpLOud marks the beginning of a new creative synergy: Laboratorio Olfattivo meets Pierre Guéros, perfumer at Symrise. This great traveller and connoisseur of Middle East immediately seduced us with his sensitivity, his human curiosity and his ability to establish an empathic contact with other cultures. Without hesitation, we entrusted him the mission of giving body to “our vision” of Oud. ExpLOud was born, as an aromatic explosion based on the most precious and luminous of Ouds, with floral notes to lift and twist the characteristic scent of this unique raw material which has already experienced numerous interpretations on the market”.
