WOODY
IF BY R.K.
It was by crossing India from north to south during a charity race that David Frossard, artistic director of the the House Frapin, found the inspiration for this new fragrance. IF, pays tribute to India with its precious wood, sandalwood from Mysore and the native poet of Bombay, Rudyard Kipling and his famous poem “If”.
I was lucky enough to travel from the north to the south of India during a charity race this year and on passing through Mysore, the verses of “If” came to me. It was my grandfather, a great traveller if ever there was one, who introduced me to this poem when I was a child. This lesson that needs to be repeated every day in order to become what we are”: David Frossard, artistic director of Parfums Frapin.

The perfume Bamboo Harmony is part of the KILIAN Fresh Citrus family. Fresh aromas reminiscent of a sip of sparkling citrus fruits, aquatic notes or refreshing aldehydes, they bring freshness, lightness, and a serene feeling to Kilian compositions. A lot of attention is taken in each bottle of KILIAN refillable perfume, to make them real precious objects. The perfume bottles of the fresh citrus family are adorned with a distinctive Klein blue lacquer and their bottle has been meticulously engraved on each side, with the representation of the Achilles shield. Like Kilian Hennessy says : « In perfumery, it is as much about seduction as it is about protection”. A silvery metal plate on which the name of the perfume is engraved by hand adds an extra touch of sophistication.
These details bring to the KILIAN creation a guarantee of luxury, that should not be ephemeral, but should last a lifetime. That’s why the bottle of this cellar perfume can be refilled indefinitely.

Mix & Match
Like Yin & Yang, 1/.4 and 1/.5 are interdependent, mutually enhancing one another. Each one brings richness in its own right, and while one unveils Nature’s brute strength, the other unfurls a powerful ethereal and creative energy.
All together they form an olfactive synergy, a circulation of a breath which connects natural to synthetic raws in a delicate and full fragrance, subtle and deep at the same time.
INSPIRED BY TOM FORD'S LOVE OF FINE LEATHER, THIS ULTRA-SEXY INTERPRETATION CAPTURES THE PRIMAL, ANIMALISTIC SCENT OF LEATHER AND ITS SMOOTH VOLUPTUOUS QUALITIES. A MODERN CLASSIC, THE ADDITION OF OLIBANUM, NIGHT BLOOMING JASMINE, AND BLACK SUEDE GIVES IT A DISTINCTIVE, MODERN SPIN THAT IS RAW YET REFINED, SENSUAL YET SOPHISTICATED.
Sancti is symbol of light. A healthy relic, it is sacred protection. A divine dew that illuminates with its purity.

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
Fragrance Notes & Description
Inspiration: “A gentleman is one who never hurts anyone’s feeling—unintentionally,” the quixotic Oscar Wilde once noted of the elite race of men who are shamelessly, unapologetically themselves and with perfect aplomb. They charm by their character, and please only those who are refined enough to receive them.
Fragrance story: DARK LORD ‘EX TENEBRIS LUX’ is a gentleman of the night. Meet him in the most surprising of circumstances and his mystery slowly unfolds: A head-twisting mix of shadows and light, it seduces in seconds with its elegant, long-lasting accords of leather and strong vetiver, its jasmine drenched in rum, and a dandyish entrance of bergamot and pepper. From darkness, into light.
Key notes: Pepper, Jasmine, Vetiver
Olfactive Family: Smokes – Figurative or abstract, Kilian’s smokes capture the timeless scent of Bakhoor, incense, tobacco.
Perfumer: Alberto Morillas
The clock struck midnight, but no one paid it any mind. Conversations were flying fast from each of the salons. Discussions of New Wave film, abstract painting and the nouveau roman. Ideas as refined as the surrounding decor. The warm voice of a jazz singer in the ebony salon mingled with the vanilla perfume she wore on her skin.
Whisper of spice, carnal haze and oriental sensuality… Take part in the nocturnal Parisian life, at the heart of an inner circle, and discover the second opus of the Oiseaux de Nuit Collection, Nuit et Confidences.
Distinguished and sensual, the scent includes frankincense and tonka bean. Refined and feminine, the spell is highlighted by vanilla and white musk.
Like the eccentric Englishman in a blue velvet jacket, pink striped shirt and a cashmere-print pocket square, this perfume is an extravagant unravelling of colors and textures.
A cool whiff of mint and aniseed, imbued with Chinese geranium, spills over into nuances of clove, sandalwood, benzoin and frankincense.
