A Signature Fragrance

Leather
Leather is more than just an aroma; it’s a texture, a memory of old books or vintage leather goods. Its scent can be earthy and warm, sometimes tinged with the subtle smokiness of tanning processes, evoking a sense of heritage and craftsmanship.

Vetiver
Vetiver, harvested from the roots of a tall grass native to India, exudes an earthy aroma that is both dry and slightly sweet. Its scent profile ranges from smoky and leathery to green and fresh, depending on how it’s distilled and aged. This versatile note thrives in tropical climates and has long been cherished for its grounding qualities.

Sandalwood
Sandalwood, sourced from the heartwood of trees native to India and Indonesia, carries a rich, creamy aroma that is both smooth and slightly sweet. Its scent is often described as warm and woody, with a powdery undertone that adds depth and complexity to any composition.
Mark Buxton
Founding perfumer · 31 fragrances · British

Mark Buxton, born in England and raised near Hamburg, entered perfumery almost by accident: at 21, a German game show challenge to identify 600 perfumes by scent alone caught the attention of Haarmann & Reimer, who offered him a place in their Paris training program. Over 25 years he has created for Givenchy, Versace, Van Cleef & Arpels, Paco Rabanne, Cartier, and Chopard, and composed the very first Comme des Garçons fragrance. He has also lent his daring style to niche houses including biehl parfumkunstwerke and Le Labo.
