- Key notes:
- birch
- honeysuckle
- orange
- raspberry
- thyme
- Aromagroups:
- aromatic
- leather
- vintage/old school
Dark and magnetic, Suavis Corium (Latin for “soft leather”) is a scent built on tension — beauty vs danger, control vs chaos. The opening is provocative: vintage medicine…olives…WD-40. The illusion is created by a clash of black pepper and red berries, leavened with juicy pear smoky Siberian birch. As it unfolds, wild honeysuckle and lily of the valley bloom over dry hay and red thyme, evoking sun-scorched fields and untamed energy. The base strikes with elemental force: Guaiacwood from Paraguay smolders alongside moss and Indonesian patchouli. Smoky, earthy, animalic, it moves with silent force.

- pink pepper

- grapefruit
- oakmoss
- orange
- pine needles
- rhubarb
- Aromagroups:
- citrusy
- green
Within the grand halls of the Tang dynasty, a solitary dancer, Yuyi, steps into the light. Her grace feels almost celestial, a fragment of heaven quietly descended into the mortal world. One dance is enough to captivate an entire city. Celestial Robe traces her steps with this fougere, starting with the zesty opening movement: tart orange, lemon and rhubarb, with pine and grapefruit adding sharpness and clarity. Galbanum underscores the green aspects, as a bouquet of woods (cedarwood and guaiac wood) and plush musk and ambergris round off the choreography.

Arashi No Umi | 嵐の海 by Maison Matine £50.00
- Key notes:

Bright apple and peach notes kick off this friendly fruity floral. Freesia, radiant and fresh, unfurls a sweet carpet of florals in its wake: jasmine, rose and ylang-ylang. Sandalwood and musk keep the edges soft.

- sage
- vanilla
- Aromagroups:
- spicy
- vintage/old school
- woody
As the blare of a jazz band fills the room, sensual wafts of rose and tonka bean arise from the flushed skin of couples on the dance floor. Invigorating sage intertwines with the percussive patterns of the dancers. This dazzling night doesn’t last forever, but it leaves behind a musky memory that makes you want to do it all over again.

- Aromagroups:

- fruity
Hélène Napoleone was the daughter of Napoleon’s last lover, Albine de Montholon, and although it was never confirmed if the now-exiled Emperor was indeed her father, he did give her his name, so…? Her namesake fragrance is a vivacious bouquet of fruits and florals, headlined by sparkling pear and creamy magnolia. The charm deepens with the amber base, warmed by sandalwood and patchouli.
Tubereuse Vertigineuse by Molinard £66.67
- Key notes:
- amber
- coconut
- peach
- tuberose
- Aromagroups:
- floral
- fruity
- vintage/old school
With a dizzying effect on the senses, tuberose exudes opulence and olfactory that might only a master perfumer can tame. Bursting with sunshine, this white flower from Grasse unleases a soft, voluptuous perfume. A honeyed top note gradually develops over a base sandalwood and white musk.
This original interpretation of the flower ushers in a world of prestige, with a hint of oriental mystery. A fantasy for the sensory imagination.
Ms. Macadamia by Raconteur £129.17
- Key notes:
- macadamia
- mimosa
- orris (iris root)
- peach
- sandalwood
- vanilla
- vetiver
- Aromagroups:
- fruity
- woody
Not just a fine addition to luxury white chocolate chip cookies, macadamia is also an intriguing perfume material. Creamy, buttery and velvety, it’s the starting point for this unusual fruity floral. The floral is mimosa, a cute li’l flower that looks innocent, but plays dirty. Don’t let those fluffy yellow pom-poms fool you — mimosa’s got a raunchy side thanks to its dusty niff of overripe honey. Orris doubletracks mimosa’s powderiness, while peach twins mimosa’s earthy sweetness. Mellow sandalwood steers macadamia from a nut to wood. Macadamia? That’s Ms Macadamia to you.
Aer by Ortir Apothecari £95.00
- Key notes:
- cedarwood
- orange
- peppermint
- rose
- woodland litter
- Aromagroups:
- aromatic
- woody
AER translates to air and is pronounced "air-r".
Cool coastal breeze in a bottle. This uplifting niche perfume offers an initial hit of cool aromatics, crisp and light on the skin. A slight wood-smokiness unfolds, dry and elegant, bringing you gently back down to earth.
