Inspired by the haptic qualities of velvet and red wine, Chateau de Velours is a-swirl with red fruits. Raspberry, blackcurrant and wild strawberry blur their berry best with the boozy plumminess of davana. Honey and chocolate imbue this eau de parfum with animalic sweetness. Oakmoss and patchouli suggest the subtle earthiness of Pinot Noir, without interrupting the smoothness.

From LO’s Parfum Intense collection, this is an amber with the darkness turned up to 11. There’s no white space here, just expensive raw materials piled high. Its vibrant opening with fruity notes is enriched by the bitterness of coffee, deepening into a powerful chorus of rose, iris, jasmine and lily of the valley. And this valley is a deep one, a soft black expanse of leather, nagarmotha and patchouli, cushioned by a dirtier-than-usual amber.
