The plant by the roots.
A materials-driven scent that exalts the primal nature of the precious essence. Here, vetiver owns up to its innate toughness. And even more: to its virility. True, it has anchored men’s fragrances for decades, but usually in a polite, urbane, toned-down form. In Vétiver Bourbon, Marc-Antoine Corticchiato unshackles it from its overly civilised manners to restore its native elegance. That of a material which, in its raw state, is a fragrance in itself, unique and contrasted.
Parfum d’Empire combines a radical and personal style, an exuberant use of rich materials with a sense of balance. Resonant, tempting, penetrating… An invitation to conquer the realm of the senses.
