Percival

A modern fougère: lavender and neroli over pale woods, clean and luminous. The house's most restrained proposition.

Mefisto

Lemon, grapefruit and bergamot cut with lavender, over an orris-and-rose heart and a base of amber, cedar and sandalwood. The name points somewhere dark; the build is clean and soapy.
