Description

B87.135 EXTRAIT by Marc-Antoine Barrois presents a sumptuous and opulent experience, drawing inspiration from the rich aromas of a Middle Eastern souk and the luxury of Harrods. It opens with a spicy fizz of pink peppercorn, quickly revealing a warm glow of saffron and a soft, dry, suede-like leather. As it develops, a decadent sweet rose and buttery iris emerge, intertwined with a swirling tobacco and a rich, almost chocolate-like patchouli. The fragrance settles into a refined base of woods and mineral myrrh, offering an elegant and full-bodied character. Perfumer: Quentin Bisch

Perfumer

Quentin Bisch

Quentin Bisch’s energy makes the air around him electric as he talks about scents. This all-encompassing passion is what brought a music student and an artistic director of a performing company to perfumery. A one-month internship in Grasse was all it took to find his true vocation and then devote the next several years to studying fragrance composition. The arts continue to inspire Quentin. He creates perfumes in the same way he might direct a theatre performance using strong ideas, careful embellishments and surprising effects. He has been honored best perfumer in 2020. He signed fragrances for Jean Paul Gaultier, Paco Rabanne, Saint Laurent, Azzaro, Mugler, Chloé, Ex Nihilo, Etat Libre d’Orange.
