The story behind the bottle.
Ganymede Extrait by Marc-Antoine Barrois, launched in 2023 and crafted by perfumer Quentin Bisch, is an Oriental Spicy fragrance that intertwines warm spices with a rich balsamic character. The incense and myrrh notes create a smoky warmth, while the mandarin orange adds a bright contrast to the overall composition. Immortelle and akigalawood lend depth and complexity to the base, grounding the scent in earthy tones.
Apply Ganymede Extrait to pulse points for an enduring warmth. The smoky base notes develop slowly, so allow it time to evolve on your skin throughout the day. This composition reads best close to the body rather than across a room.
