VICI LEATHER is the latest perfume release from luxury niche fragrance house Electimuss London. Inspired by the victory cry of Julius Caesar, Vici Leather is the scent of success exuding luxury and an easy confidence.
At the heart of this fragrance are two powerful notes of seduction, one feminine, one masculine, combined perfectly to create a very unisex scent that is elegant and charismatic. A robust tuberose is entwined with an addictive sweet leather to create a heart of masculine and feminine sensuality.
Vici Leather is made even more intoxicating by the wormwood which has the woozy quality of Absinthe and an ambery base that is both powerful and relaxed. It is a confident fragrance with effortless elegance exuding success and sensuality.
PERFUMER’S NOTES
“VICI LEATHER is the ultimate smell of seduction. It starts off with a wormwood, evoking the wooziness of the Absinth. But rapidly it combines two of the most sensual ingredients of perfumers’ palette. One expressing a more masculine attribute showing a manly but gentle charisma: sweet leather. The other one is more known for being a feminine attribute of seduction: Tuberose. As a fun fact, young women during the Renaissance were forbidden from the Tuberose fields, as it was said the captivating smell of tuberose might make it impossible for them to control their desire. Those two powerful ingredients combine perfectly in a very unisex, powerful, elegant, laid back charisma, ambery base.“ Julien Rasquinet

THE STORY: Solah Shringar is a 16 stage ritual to prepare royal women for public appearance. Indian royalty were considered somewhere between man and God and this ritual adornment with perfumes and jewels created something of a super-human presence. The name itself comes from temple designs and decorations and the image of the women, once decorated, as a perfect, carved goddess. A unique Oud was selected from the South of India, one of the highest quality Oud oils, it is both angular and edgy.
THE FRAGRANCE: The unique Oud from the South of India, angular and sweetly edgy, dictates this heavenly scent. The top note blends beautifully with cedar wood and guaiac. At the base, a pure patchouli and sunbaked vetivert add depth and warmth polished off by a smooth, temperate musk. Divine.

This is dark, carnal and animalic: a patchouli with a musky sexuality, power, opulence. It captures the raw passion of Pluto, the darkness of the underworld; as well as the opulence of the hidden treasures of his kingdom, such as precious gems, minerals and glittering metals held deep within the earth’s core.
INSPIRATION
Pluto’s plight was to rule the UNDERWORLD: the final destination for the dead but also DEEP EARTH the place of riches and opulence abundant with precious jewels, oil, minerals and resources and the earth necessary for a bountiful harvest. Brother to the King of the Gods Jupiter, PLUTO was a powerful and magnetic personality.
This perfume was created with Persephone’s Patchouli as a pair. Two perfumers explores the central note of Patchouli through two lenses of the same story: that of Pluto and his Queen Persephone.
PERFUMER’S NOTES
“The idea was to build a black patchouli, with a furry texture as black as the panther.
It starts with pink and black pepper blended with citruses (bergamot and mandarin) to create a fresh dark top note enhancing the camphor notes of patchouli. I played with a suede leather accord of mate absolute, birch and a smoky twist with cade and rich smoked precious woods to create a synergy between resins and woods and strengthen the character of musk.
I softened that with a blend of cistus, labdanum extracts and other amber materials to give the furry and smooth signature. Bits of carnation (spicy rose character) and other floral elements are enriching the fragrance to give it depth and structure.” Kévin Mathys
