Barrois Ganymede unisex eau de parfum - 100 ml
Ganymede eau de parfum The scent of a dreamlike reality For this new work, the duo has not changed, nor the creative osmosis between Marc-Antoine Barrois and Quentin Bisch, but the destination is elsewhere. Creating an elegant and unexpected harmony around a quartet of mandarin, violet, immortelle and chamois, the two fellow artists dreamed of this new planet: Ganymede, the rocky satellite of Jupiter discovered in 1610 by Galileo, is bright and covered in salt. oceans of water. It took its name from Greek mythology: a young man, Ganymede, was kidnapped by the gods who were so fascinated by his beauty that they offered him immortality. Composed by perfumer Quentin Bisch, Ganymede once again uses the leather and suede notes that had made B683 a beautiful classic. This time, however, the artists have emancipated themselves from traditional codes to take us elsewhere, towards a luminous and fluid elegance. Those leather notes soften, acquiring lightness and sweetness in contact with the fragrance of violet. The smell of mandarin brings all its liveliness and acidic essence. The latter gives the tone and verticality of the fragrance from the beginning. But by opposing it, immortelle acts as a counterpoint and elevates the olfactory harmony with its double-sided fragrance, sometimes mineral, other times salty. The entire composition plays with contrasts and oppositions. The notes respond to each other in a permanent dialogue, drawing a new olfactory map on the skin, on the lapels of a cashmere jacket, or even there, next to the buttons on the sleeves, on the wrist. If it could be summed up in a single image, it would be a compass: north for the zestful liveliness of the mandarin to which the south would respond with the perennial flower and to highlight this olfactory frame, the density of the suede notes in the west would balance the subtle and delicate florality of the viola to the east. There are four directions for a fragrant journey towards a new imaginary world and new codes of elegance. The notes of this eau de parfum are, at the top: Mandarin from Italy heart of Orpur essence, saffron; at the heart: violet, Orpur Chinese osmanthus absolute; at the base Akigalawood and Assoluta of Immortelle. The fragrances of the Maison MARC-ANTOINE BARROIS they are the result of the meeting of two young designers. One is a couturier, the other a perfumer. Their childhood memories brought them together. Remember appealing smells; of the leather of an elegant briefcase or an immaculate desk pad; of the distinct smells of wood during the regular collection of fuel to heat the family home. The artistic skills of the former and the olfactory talent of the latter together have ignited the magic of these beautiful fragrances. The perfumes and candles are made in Franco
