Description

Note: This special 10ml size is packaged in a splash format. There is no atomizer spray under the cap, only a small hole for controlled application of the liquid directly to the skin.

Created by perfumer Quentin Bisch, Ganymede once again makes use of the suede-leathery notes that had made B683 a beautiful classic.

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.

For this new opus, 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. The artists have freed themselves from traditional codes to take us somewhere else, towards a luminous 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.

Notes: Mandarina from Italy essence, saffron, mineral notes, suede, violet, Chinese osmanthus absolute, akigalawood, immortelle absolute
