The story behind the bottle.
B683 Extrait by Marc-Antoine Barrois, launched in 2020 and crafted by perfumer Quentin Bisch, is a composition that balances warm spiciness with green freshness. The opening notes of fresh spicy and ozonic scents create an initial contrast to the rich oud and woody base, which grounds the fragrance with earthy depth. This interplay between light and warmth makes it a versatile choice for both day and night.
Apply this fragrance in layers for the best effect. The ozonic and green notes are most prominent initially but give way to the rich oud and woody base over time. Two sprays on pulse points will allow the scent to evolve naturally throughout the day.
