Nuit de Sable

Turkish rose wrapped in warm spices — cardamom, nutmeg, cumin — over sandalwood, tonka bean and musk. The drydown suggests warm sand, and it suits cool evenings.

Bengale Rouge

A warm, honeyed rose over ambrette and benzoin, far from the animalic compositions the house built its name on. Rich materials, but the effect is closer to warm skin than to a statement scent.
