PAVILLON ROUGE
Woody, oriental
As daylight starts to decline, a schooner is busy readying itself to dock. It’s distinctive lines leave no doubt to the sharpened eye of an onlooker. “This one must be a privateer…” mumble the old people assembled in the port as they gaze across at the looming warship; “he must have made a mistake, docking here!” As the wind rises there can be no more ambiguity for a Jolly Roger slams into view and whistles a Memento Mori that reminds us that life is fragile, so we must live it well. But here the skull and crossbones are emblazoned on a red flag, meaning a short but good life is better!
Sucked in by the promises of the amber and vanilla aromas of rum and whiskey, a buccaneer rushes out onto the dock and blends into the crowd for a fleeting moment of tranquility during his overnight stopover. He knows that his proud ship will be gone before dawn. Disappeared completely, leaving only a trail of exotic spices and the precious woods of the treasures that fill his holds alongside the promise he made to an elegant woman to return one day “provided God gives her life”.
A perfume of conquest and adventure, Pavillon Rouge is an ode to life. It invites conquering both day and night, without any fear and with the confidence of those who have braved death for some long-lost fortune or legendary glory.

L ART DE LA GUERRE
Fern, aromatic
The end justifies the means. For women and men, the spirit of conquest sometimes leads us down unexpected paths. To win the most worthy of all battles – the game of seduction –, there need to be strategies, sharp tactics and the determined desire, always, to triumph. On a playing field that only men used to enjoy, L’Art de la Guerre shakes up the rules, mixing the nostalgic freshness of fern with the spicy and smoky notes of eternity.
Rhubarb, violet leaf, oakmoss

Papyrus, sandalwood, vetiver
A smouldering aphrodisiac brew with a 25% Perfume Concentration. A bolt of sun warmed paradise, an amber oriental perfume with Gourmande, fruity and addictive notes opening with a citrus accord of Bergamot, Grapefruit and Neroli, combined with a fruity herbal green accord of black cherry, and Clary Sage. A rich heart of Jasmine with notes of Orris, Tobacco and Papyrus give’s sensuality and depth. The base is an oriental woody style, rich with Ambers, smoky leather and rich resinous Labdanum, sweetened with a touch of Tonka and Vanilla. Hedonistic reckless abandon awaits…
A sweet freshness of bergamot, elemi and lavender clash vigorously with a balm of styrax and aoud, wanting to indulge themselves in patchouli’s impertinence and sandalwood’s gushing insouciance.
Mandarin offers a juicy, fresh edge to C Woody Leather. Originated from China where it’s regarded a symbol of good fortune.
Known as “The King of Spices” and “Red Gold” saffron is native to Southeast Asia. The beautiful purple flowers herald the first sign of spring even though it is not harvested until the autumn.

Godolphin seduces with remarkable refinement. This distinguished scent is composed of complex and deep aromas which are artfully blended to create a sophisticated and masculine experience. Opening with fresh notes of thyme, spicy saffron and cypress, the fragrance is anchored by rose, iris and jasmine. The narrative concludes with heady woody notes of white cedarwood, vetiver leather, musk, amber and vanilla.
This is a molten ring, the dawning of a new energy. A bloody Orange sun rises over Rose and Saffron’s blazing circle, liberating Leather’s endless power.
This is the perfume of fire.
