The perfume of an oneiric reality For this new opus, the duo has not changed, nor the creative osmosis between Marc-Antoine Barrois and Quentin Bisch, but the destination is elsewhere. Creating an elegant and unexpected harmony around a quartet of mandarin, violet, immortelle and suede, the two fellow artists have dreamt of this new planet: Ganymede, the rocky satellite of Jupiter discovered in 1610 by Galileo, is both luminous and covered with salt-water oceans. It acquired its name from Greek mythology: a young man, Ganymede, was kidnapped by gods who had been so enthralled by his beauty that he was offered immortality.
Composed by perfumer Quentin Bisch, Ganymede once again makes use of the suede-leathery notes that had made B683 a beautiful classic. This time though, the artists emancipated from traditional codes to take us somewhere else, towards aluminous and fluid elegance. Those leather notes become softer, gaining lightness and gentleness in contact with the fragrance of violet. The mandarin smell brings its full vivacity and its acidic essence. The latter gives the tone and verticality of the fragrance from the very start. Yet opposing it, the immortelle is its counterpoint and raises the scented harmony with its double-sided fragrance, at times mineral, at other times salty. The entire composition plays with contrasts and oppositions.
The notes answer one another in a permanent conversation drawing a new olfactory map on the skin, on the revers of a cashmere jacket, or even right there, next to the buttons of the sleeves, on the wrist. If it could be summed up into one single image, it would be a compass : north for the zested liveliness of the mandarin to which the south would answer with the everlasting flower and to highlight this olfactory frame, the density of suede notes on the west would balance the subtle and delicate florality of the violet on the east. Those are four directions for a perfumed journey to a new imaginary world and new codes of elegance. The notes of this eau de parfum are, at the top : Mandarina from Italy essence heart Orpur, safran ; at the heart : violet, Chinese osmanthus absolute Orpur ; at the base Akigalawood and Immortelle absolute.
The fragrances of the Maison MARC-ANTOINE BARROIS are the result of the meeting of two young designers. One is a couturier, the other a perfumer. Their childhood memories brought them together. Remembering captivating smells; of the leather from an elegant attaché case or an immaculate desk blotter; of the distinct smells of wood during the regular gather-ring of fuel to warm the family home. The artistic skills of the former and the olfactory talent of the latter together sparked the magic of these beautiful fragrances. The perfumes and candles are made in France.
A PERFUME OF OPTIMISM
It’s a white light in the dark. A mysterious clarity radiating a nocturnal clearing. The caress of the moon on a field of tuberous, immaculate petals reflecting the glow of the star like a mirror.
It is a star, ALDEBARAN, one of the brightest in the sky; the second star of the floral constellation imagined by the designer Marc-Antoine Barrois and his accomplice, the perfumer Quentin Bisch.
“A fragrance like no other. ”
Like a luminous star in the night, this new fragrance is a soliflore of tuberose with milky facets and fresh petals, lightly enhanced with paprika and tonka beans. ALDEBARAN embodies hope and optimism.
ALDEBARAN takes its name from the brightest star discovered and observed by an 18th-century Arab astronomer. Its name, from the Arabic Al-Debaran, evokes the outstretched hand of one who helps and shows the way. This olfactory experience is a quest for optimism, like a journey through the looking glass, from darkness to light.
With this reinterpretation, the two creators offer a dive into the most sensual character of B683, an immersion at the heart of this perfume and its signature: the warmth and the depth of a woody-leathery accord. Here, it gains another intensity to become an authentic “patchouli leather.” Around that, other notes of the composition sublimate the different facets of this matter with tactile sensuality. Pepper and cumin offer the vibration of their spicy accents, the oud wood enhances the density of then accord while the vanilla brightens it with a caressing roundness…

Fresh jungle on the side of a volcano,
ENCELADE is a powerful and captivating fragrance.
Ambivalence of a perfume of shadow and light which playfully plays with its paradoxes.
The primordial rhubarb, cedar and vetiver accord expresses the scent of earth, of sap, the image of lush nature. Green and woody notes mingled with the crash of smoked and animal leather.
Milky sandalwood and tonka bean add sensuality and addiction to the skin.
The pure seduction of a fragrance with wild magnetism.

13 Galerie Vero-Dodat in Paris. An address. A cocoon. A shelter on the edge of the city.
A candle as a tribute
A smell as a gift which conforts
Soothing fragance of burnished furniture
Of a cottage in the country
Crackling fall
The burnised wood warming the heart
Vague recollection of the workshop of an instrument maker
Honey of peace and serenity
Delight of resin and noble woods
Sandalwood… gaiac… incense…
Holy perfume of childhood
A place to cuddle
Conforting flame
Miracle of generosity
The quilted softness of a shelter
That we like to bring along with us.

Jupiter’s immense satellite has not only inspired our perfume’s name, but is also known to be full of craters and to have an underground ocean vaster than all of earth’s oceans put together. The perfume’s creators, Marc-Antoine Barrois and Quentin Bisch, have imagined it here in a world with an atmosphere brimming with aromatics that it becomes combustible: its sky is gleaming with the sour spike of mandarin and the holy fumaroles of incense and myrrh. It’s a planet covered with warm velvet dunes where the spicy and caramelized everlasting flower is preponderant. The fiery heart of this fragrance reminds us that the gods gave Ganymede eternal life so that his beauty would never fade. Is it the smoldering skin hidden underneath the wild leather? This precious perfume extract is as much a sophisticated perfume as a carnal one.
Ganymede EXTRAIT unfolds in its dizzying trail the seduction of great Classics.
The sound of the waves from far away. The wind is sweeping a field of everlasting flowers. The sun takes out its right and heats the spicy, almost syrupy scent of these yellow flowers. The waves are caressing the dune.
The wind picks up the sand into warm, leathery, heady gusts- incense, myrrhe? Grains of sand are twirling, incandescent. The rock is flushing, the Akigalawood and Mandarin bring minerals and freshness. The air becomes… captivating.

Simple. Solar. Smiling. It is the scent of everlasting summer. Of holidays that never end. The honeyed, apricot inflexions of broom. The tender powder of heliotrope. A bucolic bouquet made still richer with a sprig of velvety jasmine sambac. Underlined, like a stroke of shade intensifying the radience of an afternoon in the sun, bu the smoky earthiness of vetiver…
