The brutal yet tender collision of rose and patchouli

Voleur de Roses was composed by Michel Almairac and captures the chaos of a rose garden shattered by a thunderstorm. Rain and the smell of lightening in the air, wet earth, broken stems, bruised petals giving up a spicy crushed scent into the air. Roses stolen, ripped back by nature, this is an unexpected rose scent, a collision of roses and patchouli. Regal and brutal, tender and long lasting.

A polished patchouli that wears like velvet on the skin

Patchouli Patch is set apart from other attempts at capturing this most classic of fragrance notes by the exceptional quality of the raw material, the refined nature of the patchouli essential oil used in this full bodied and elegant fragrance. Deep white musks and anise layered with precious woods, add depth and persistence, polishing the patchouli into a deep amethyst glow. There are touches of floral earth here and there in the spaces between notes, just a reminder of patchouli's long and smoky past. Patchouli Patch wears like soft purple velvet on the skin.

A potent portrayal of candied roses; alluring and just a little dangerous

Saffron is the world's most expensive spice and is rumoured to arouse the senses. It was a favourite of the Greek gods themselves on the lofty peaks of Mount Olympus. Safran Troublant is an unsettling and potent portrait of a candied rose. The sensuality is heightened with the addition of sandalwood and spicy ginger notes. This makes for a seductive and unexpected fragrance, where the saffron serves to highlight the sheer opulence of the rose. Beautiful and a little dangerous to wear.
