The best Agarwood resin, as cited throughout ancient religious scriptures, is extracted from the Aquilaria tree. Its rich cognac notes form the base of this exquisite fragrance.
Amber Aquilaria opens with a bright, sparking bergamot that melts into a heart of roses – rich, velvet petals that mesmerise before falling into an opulent pillow of warm amber, sandalwood, Bourbon, vanilla and Aquilaria Oud.
INSPIRATION
Passion for perfume was woven into the tapestry of everyday life for the Romans. Their fountains were scented rose water and perfume was part of cleansing rituals, celebration, feasts, seduction and worship. The Romans collected the finest and rarest oils from across the Empire, from West to East and that obsession, creativity and quest for the finest is at the heart of Amber Aquilaria
Electimuss means “to choose the best” in Latin and that ethos is the essence of Amber Aquilaria. The finest oils and resins in this fragrance are rare and precious and have been blended with meticulous attention paid to every note and detail.
This fragrance that exudes luxury and elegance and is connoisseur crowd pleaser.
A scent that hesitates between flower and wood, between the masculine and the feminine, to find its perfect balance marrying both, in an explosion of light, radiance and mystery. Bergamot, mandarin, iris, rose, neroli, woods and a touch of amber… Ultimate chic revisited by the sunshine of the Côte d’Azur…
Inspiration from Kilian Hennessy: A gourmet pleasure reserved for adults, the iconic Love, don’t be shy is taken to its EXTREME with an overdose of Bulgarian rose.
The Scent: From the olfactory family of Narcotic Flowers, Love, don’t be shy – EXTREME is such an addicting pleasure that sensitive souls are urged to refrain. A variation that underlines the original version, Love, don’t be shy, with a sublime crystallized floral aspect. Orange blossom and rose overdose make up a luminous elixir that no gourmet can resist. Its rose petals are hand-picked at dawn to capture the scent in all its intensity – an artisan detail that reaches the subconscious.
The Love, don’t be shy EXTREME fragrance is part of the KILIAN PARIS Narcotic Flowers family of fragrances.
Great care is taken in each KILIAN PARIS perfume bottle, to make them real precious objects. The white and gold perfume bottles of the narcotic flower family are adorned with a white lacquer and meticulously engraved on each side, with a motif interweaving door, snake, vine and apple – the symbols of original sin – allusion to fate. As Kilian Hennessy points out: “In perfumery, it is as much about seduction as it is about protection”. A golden metal plate on which is hand-engraved the name of the perfume brings an additional touch of sophistication.
A return to the roots in Grasse, where dreams become perfume.
Le Temps des Rêves is a wander through these landscapes of a thousand bitter orange trees, where Annick Goutal began her training in the art of perfumery.
It distils the soft, comfortable and Mediterranean scent of orange blossom tinged with garrigue. Like a reverie that takes us back to the origins of perfume.
Every breath of this fascinating perfume gathers pilgrims onto its long, beautiful journey.
Privé Eau de Parfum integrates itself into the wearer, opening the senses and creating a nostalgic experience. A complex formulation of the many favoured and private perfume oils of Ormonde Jayne – our DNA personified. Adorable hints of basmati rice and pink pepper, a luxurious heart of gardenia, magnolia and jasmine, all absolutes, all enveloping, creative and flattering.

CITRUS FLORAL
Green souls fall in love in the shade of Citrus trees. Your laughter exhales a song of Yuzu zests and my kisses flutter, white, like petals of Neroli – as they rest on your Grapefruit lips. Red. The pulp of my fingers run along your Jasmine neck, I drink the blue seas of your eyes and the smell of your smiles. There is a heat, a whiff of Vanilla, of two bodies entwined in a shape of White Musks. Hypnotic Lotus and dilated pupils, there comes from my fingers like a moan of Geranium, a desire to taste you like a sip of Orange juice. Green. I waft towards you on the wings of your skin-of-clouds. “Words do not lie”. There is no end to me.
This is a blue planet, juicy like an Orange whence Lotus and Orange Blossom spring like seaspray. A haze of White Musks and tropics of Neroli shape a continent of Vanilla deserts.
“The Earth is blue like an Orange”
This is the perfume of Love.
Floral Woodsy Harmony
