Glowing spice-clouds, acid ashes,
tremors: burning adrenaline.
Ascent, 3700 metres. Beyond-black slopes: parched ylang,
scorched sandalwood and cedar.
Cascading coffee, crackling cardamom,
roasting ginger. Roaring softness.

A refreshing encounter with nature, this fougère fragrance epitomises the vitality of verdant valleys. Lively, crisp and clean, Oud Vert is a signature summer scent with an eminently relaxed composure that renders it perennial. Energetic top notes herald the arrival of zesty Mediterranean bergamot fused with Madagascan ginger and Sri Lankan cardamom. Warming geranium offers balance paired with a skin-synergistic musk that lingers with intent.
A floral sea breeze.
On a summer evening by the Mediterranean, gusts of ocean air find refuge in the salty spice of ginger lilies.
Reinforcing these salty notes, and sweetening them with orange blossom, yields a radiant perfume for sun-flooded terraces and balmy nights.
Seaside chic.
In a great shimmer, Ginger, Nutmeg and Cardamom provoke a verbal joust with the burst of a high and pretentious Rose in reaction to Olibanum’s retort. The response to a waft of Tabacco was not long in coming, so that in the end, Oud, who was roused by Patchouli, also understood his arrogance.
[pʀ ɔliks] adj. Litt. [ETYM. Derived from Latin. Prolixus: « That which is widely diffused »].
Ginger, Cardamom, Cinnamon… clothe and envelop us while Rose’s radiance, bolstered by Patchouli’s mysterious power and Oud’s obscure intensity, escalates into a great blaze, emitting wafts of Tobacco and Oliban.
In the heart of chaos and disorder this floral chypre fragrance reveals an interlude moment of unity and sentiment.

The future and last French empress, Eugénie de Montijo, was born in Granada, the jewel of Andalusia. A sparkling beauty, her seductive nature and temperamental elegance delighted Napoleon the third. This beautiful lady who influenced the mundane life and artistic refinement of her time inspired this luminous fragrance.
A sensual amber carried by the power of white flowers and patchouli, of which the empress loved the unforgettable vapor trail.
