Composition & Character
How It Wears
A Signature Fragrance
Balsam Fir
Originating from the resinous barks of fir trees, Balsam Fir carries with it the scent of dense coniferous woods and a hint of fresh pine. Its aroma is both earthy and uplifting, reminiscent of walking through an evergreen forest on a cold day, where the air is sharp and invigorated by the chill.
Cedar
Cedar, sourced from various species of coniferous trees, exudes a deep, resinous aroma with hints of sweetness and wood smoke. Its scent is both comforting and grounding, reminiscent of old libraries or the quiet solitude of a forest. This versatile note has long been favored for its ability to blend seamlessly into complex compositions without overpowering other ingredients.
Amber
Amber is an olfactory illusion, conjured from labdanum, benzoin, vanilla, and other resins to evoke the sun-soaked warmth of the Mediterranean coast. Its scent is both earthy and sweet, with a powdery undertone that mimics the richness of ancient incense.

Fragrances that pair well with 1805 Tonnerre
Gunpowder Smoke, Green Pepper
1805 Tonnerre's gunpowder and sea water smoke runs into Absent Presence's green galbanum and black pepper, and both share cedar and amber at the base so the smoky, briny top eventually settles into the same warm wood. Violet leaf and jasmine soften the gunpowder's edge.
Spray 1805 Tonnerre first for the smoky marine opening, then layer Absent Presence over it so the green pepper and sandalwood round it out.
