Elegy is an aromatic déjà vu where perfumed flowers swirl over elegantly powdered skin. There are beautiful contrasts woven throughout Elegy, expressing the soaring joys and deep sorrow that life entails.

Showcasing some of perfumery’s most prized materials, Elegy starts with a burst of earl-grey tinted Bergamot and Petitgrain accompanied by the gentle warmth of cognac-tinged Geranium. The resulting trichord shines so intensely before fading as quickly as it appeared, evolving into a mournful sigh of late summer Honeysuckle and pollen-drunk Heather Absolute.

Elegy fades to a luxurious swathe of exotic and precious absolutes, musk and slow-burning resins which undulate in perfect harmony – a nostalgic and graceful offering of remembrance. Enduring and resilient Hay absolute, aged Oud oil and cashmere-soft Patchouli absolute extends a comforting consolation. To fade.

Notes: bergamot, lavender, honeysuckle, petitgrain & heather absolute, jasmine absolute, orange flower absolute, rose absolute, geranium bourbon, ambrette seed, benzoin, cedar absolute, patchouli absolute, hay absolute, oakmoss absolute, musk*, labdanum absolute, oud, ambergris.*

Why you'll love it

"Elegy" feels like a timeless, achingly soft heirloom blanket of flowers, moss and musk. In some ways unapologetically vintage, it's been polished into a contemporary, almost minimalist simplicity. A velvety, gorgeous delight for real perfume fans, it melts into your skin like aerated gold.
