Create an explosion!
A rose diffracted into a scent of phenomenal power. An olfactory explosion with an intense emotional charge. An exhilaration of pure energy, climaxing into intoxication. An extraordinary fragrance in the true sense of the word.
From the first moment, rose rushes to the head and brings colour to the cheeks. As explosive as it is elusive, it expresses itself forcefully and fully embraces its ambiguities. Bright, with its shadows. Feminine and masculine. Soft, but ruthless. Like an adrenalin rush, Atomic Rose shows its extravagance to exalt its wearer.
An explosive equation
A Rose with the potency of Hedione HC. Driven by the iconic ingredient of the Carnal Blends collection, the queen of flowers enters another dimension. Heightened and magnified, it enacts its own revolution in an absolute and uncompromising fragrance.
Carnal Blends, intoxicating essences
Can perfume increase our power of attraction? For a long time, we have only been able to trust in our intuition to confirm this. Science did not recognise that scents have the capacity to trigger the production of sex hormones. Then a team of researchers from Bochum University in Germany proved that some odorous molecules can activate regions of the brain connected to libido. This singular link between scents, pleasure and sexuality is at the core of the Carnal Blends collection. This collection is firmly transgressive and plays on bold combinations to highlight its carnal notes with one aim in mind: to trigger emotions and heighten sexual attraction.
What is its secret ingredient?
Hedione HC; a molecule which is of floral origin, a compound found in the heart notes of jasmine and magnolia, that provides radiant and airy power to a fragrance. Hedione HC also activates a region of the brain related to pleasure and increased libido. Initio has made it the signature of Carnal Blends. This sensually open collection boasts fragrances that are much more than perfume. Sensual potions with immediate appeal that speak to our most unconscious and primal depths. An ode to our animality…
This is the fifth perfume Antoine Lie has made for Puredistance and just like his other creations for Puredistance, GOLD exactly matches the feeling we had in heart. We have given Antoine carte blanche to use the very best ingredients and so he did. GOLD is a veritable feast of the rarest and most precious natural ingredients.
Perfume Extrait: 36% perfume oil.
A beautifully blended elixir that personifies the complex dimensions of a woman.
Top notes of Bergamot and Carnation represent her classy sophistication juxtaposed by Sichuan Pepper to accentuate her sassy side. Heart notes of Rose and Ambre 84 DL soften the tone.
Base notes of warm, rich Indian Sandalwood couple with tenacious Labdanum to round out this well-balanced mixture. Garnished with highly desired Benzoin, this unique aroma embodies the true value of its components.
Inspired by the Pavillion de la Guyane (Paris).
Bewitching, exquisite and elegant.

A refreshing encounter with nature, this fougère fragrance epitomises the vitality of verdant valleys.

Warming geranium offers balance paired with a skin-synergistic musk that lingers with intent.
Refined, sultry sophistication in fragrance form, the dark knight of the Shades Collection evokes the super-charged adrenaline of life in the fast lane.

PSYCHEDELIC LOVE
The signature of this narcotic bomb lies in three essential ingredients: rose, hedione and heliotropin.
Beware of its creamy, powdery and floral facets, wavering between vanilla and almond!
Confronted with this diabolical indulgence, no one is safe from an olfactory obsession that can soon become a real addiction!
Main accord: bergamot, myrrh, rose, vanilla, patchouli.
Evening in Esperanto
This resolutely masculine extract is dedicated to dandyish urban night owls who were just waiting for their signature perfume to
come along. A fragrance so insidery, finding likeminded spirits who wear it becomes almost a game, a knowing nod among members of the same elite club.
Grapefruit, jasmine, musk
Taking on an olfactory family this well known is no mean feat. It’s a testament to Vanina’s originality and creativity that this Ambra is very “Jeroboam”, in other words modern, daring and sensual.
Bergamot, patchouli, musk
During the Roaring Twenties, French Cancan dancers in the celebrated cabarets of Paris had their own very specific perfume rituals. It is said that they perfumed “every hill and valley” — wherever they wanted to be kissed. Hauto (“skin”) is an invitation to experience the fragrance of “skin”.
Pineapple, musk, tuberose
