This perfume is a hedonistic white floral Aria. At centre stage, two perfume Grand Dames: a carnal overdose of Tuberose Flower enfleurage cast against extravagant African Ylang Ylang. Exotic Jasmin Sambac petals and rare Moroccan Orange Blossom sing in the chorus. For the contrapposto, a touch of smokey Vetyver Root from Java brings unexpected tension. A thrillingly modern floral operetta full of sensual passion.
This perfume was designed as an iconic classic White Floral perfume, made ultra modern with the addition of a smokey, pyrogenated layer.

Tuberose (Polianthes tuberosa)
ORIGIN: Southern India
EXTRACTION: Enfleurage
Tuberose is an opulent white flower that releases a captivating, seductive scent that has been prized in perfuming for thousands of years. Its headiness and power make it famously difficult to balance in a creation. It is traditionally the flower of illicit lovers.
Our Tuberose is wild harvested from fields in Southern India. Each flower is picked by hand and then extracted through enfleurage, a painstaking ancient method where the flowers are placed by hand on a sheet of vegetable fat. The fat extracts the precious oils from the flowers. The flowers are replaced every day for two weeks during the enfleurage process.
