Top note — minute one
Saffron
Kashmir · 34.08°N
Sharp and metallic before it is warm. Saffron opens the composition the way a struck match opens a room — leather-adjacent, faintly medicinal, and gone within twenty minutes.
The air
remembers you.
Extrait de Parfum
Composed in Grasse
No. 01
Noir Absolu
Heart note — minute twenty
Rose de Mai
Grasse · 43.66°N
Picked in eight days each May, before the sun is high. Not the rose of soap — jammy, dark, almost fermented, with the green weight of the stem still in it.
Base note — hour six, and tomorrow
Oud
Assam · 26.20°N
Resin from wood that had to be wounded to produce it. Animalic, smoky, impossible to mistake. This is the note still on your coat the following morning.

Woody
Noir Absolu
Resinous, animalic and slow. Woody compositions sit closest to the skin and last the longest — they are what people mean when they say a fragrance smells expensive.
Longevity
Sillage
Season
Smells like — Tom Ford Oud Wood, but drier
The Perfumer
“A fragrance is not a smell.
It is a memory you have
not had yet.”
Élodie Marchand trained at Grasse and spent eleven years composing for houses that would not print her name. SILLAGE is the first line to carry it. She works in extrait concentration only — twenty to thirty percent — because, she says, anything lighter is a suggestion rather than a statement.
