Vintage chypre floral

£70.00
15ml

Vintage floral chypre of undeniable quality.


Produced as a strictly limited edition of 81 bottles.


Each bottle is individually hand-numbered from 1 to 81. Once the edition is exhausted, it will not be produced again.


A floral chypre caught between memory and modernity.


It opens with a flash of bergamot, lime and bitter petitgrain, sharpened by green galbanum and a trace of aldehydic light. Beneath this brightness, blackcurrant and violet leaf introduce something darker—cool, shadowed and faintly wild.


At its heart lies an extravagant floral study. Iranian jasmine, narcissus and genet unfold through white champaca, blue lotus, rose and osmanthus. Orris butter, heliotrope and Roman chamomile soften the composition with a powdery, almost timeworn elegance, while carnation gives the flowers a warm and subtly spiced pulse.


The drydown returns the fragrance to the earth. Patchouli, Haitian vetiver and moss settle into labdanum, opoponax, tolu balsam and sandalwood. Beeswax, ambergris and musks create the impression of warm skin, while restrained traces of civet, castoreum and birch tar leave an intimate animalic shadow.


Classical chypre architecture, reconstructed with radiant florals, abstract woods and an expansive modern diffusion. Familiar at first—then increasingly strange.
