How It Wears
A Signature Fragrance
Tobacco
Tobacco's scent is a complex weave of earthy undertones and sweet, slightly bitter overtones. Derived from the leaves of the Nicotiana plant, this note has been cherished for its ability to evoke a sense of comfort and sophistication in perfumery.
Labdanum
Harvested from the sticky secretions of rockrose shrubs, labdanum exudes an intense aroma that is both animalic and woody. Its scent can be likened to a blend of ambergris and vanilla, with hints of sweetness and a smoky undertone. This complex profile makes it a versatile ingredient in perfumery.
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.
Julien Rasquinet
Founding perfumer · 64 fragrances
Julien Rasquinet’s life took a decisive turn when his father met nose extraordinaire Pierre Bourdon, by accident in an airport. Rasquinet who didn’t know anything about perfumery beyond his own passion for it, called Bourdon, who decided to take him instead of thousands of other candidates to be his last student, and bare his legacy, as Edmond Roudnitska had done with him. Call it perfumer’s intuition.
