In Delta of Venus, a new guava-centric floral that reimagines the biblical story of the Garden of Eden, Eve has reclaimed the Garden.
There, after eating the Forbidden Fruit from the Tree of Knowledge, she sits under the Tree of Life’s sun-kissed green leaves, hanging low with vibrant fruit. She writes poems about innocence and experience while the beautiful serpent coils its cool green serpentine song.
Delta of Venus opens with an effervescent burst of juicy bergamot and grapefruit, slinking seductively to its heart: a luscious guava accord created by perfumer Antoine Lie exclusively for ERIS. The accord morphs into a rolling, psychedelic kaleidoscope of carnal tropical fruit notes.
The hissing serpent appears in the form of gorgeously bitter green galbanum and the fallen, decadent sensuality of the indolic white flower, jasmine sambac.
Named after Anais Nin’s groundbreaking work of erotica, written in the 1940s and published posthumously in 1977, Delta of Venus is bottled in a powerful 20% concentration. It celebrates the sophistication and carnality of fruit, returning this perfumery ingredient to its dangerous and forbidden origins.
Banishment from paradise has never smelled so good.
"With DELTA OF VENUS, I tried to capture the natural scent of a ripe, juicy guava with all of its green aromatic facets. Combined with a floral woody backbone, the outcome is a very colorful and sparkling yet textured olfactive structure." — Antoine Lie, perfumer
