Magie Noire

A dark, feral chypre, blackcurrant and honey over castoreum. One of the most intense perfumes of its decade, and not one you wear discreetly.

Aurum

Strawberry and orange give an unexpected fruitiness to a rose that labdanum and cistus pull towards amber. Incense and oud close it, never hardening.
