The story behind the bottle.
Aldebaran by Marc-Antoine Barrois is a floral fragrance for women and men, launched in 2025. Created by perfumer Quentin Bisch, Aldebaran embodies hope and optimism — a soliflore of tuberose with milky facets and fresh petals, lightly enhanced with paprika and tonka beans. Named after the brightest star discovered by an 18th-century Arab astronomer, Aldebaran evokes the outstretched hand of one who helps and shows the way. This olfactory experience is a journey from darkness to light, like stepping through a looking glass.
Apply Aldebaran to pulse points for a subtle yet radiant presence. The tuberose opens quickly but fades within an hour; the warm spiciness of paprika and tonka bean will linger throughout the day, so one or two sprays are sufficient.
