A true underwater dive to slow down time, amid the turmoil of late summer giving way to autumn.
Imagined by Daphné Bugey, this interpretation opens on the peppery freshness of pink pepper, stirring an aromatic heart guided by eucalyptus and rose. At the base, a fiery chili accord meets the smoky depth of incense and the richness of cashmere wood.
An exploration of a sunken garden… where the ocean seems to reveal nothing more. A place shielded from the surface, where the seasons pass differently, where light hangs suspended, and the elements transform with a mineral slowness. In this preserved darkness, the garden has never stopped blooming. The flowers have changed color, the resins have grown denser. The corals have taken on the appearance of plants, and the stones seem to hold a warmth rising from the abyss. In the intensity of the depths, the materials have changed in nature.
Eucalyptus resin keeps its aromatic brightness, but its freshness turns denser, more mineral. Incense immediately unfolds smoky facets, while rose reveals itself in a new light, balmy and carnal. A different intensity takes hold. The woods draw closer around the composition, anchoring the accord in an ample, resinous presence. Cypriol brings its dark texture, sandalwoods wrap the fragrance in a creamy softness, and ambergris lets a discreet light surface, passing through the shadows like an endless breath.
