By the editors · 2 min read# Editorial Description
A chill of mint announces L'Anarchiste before it settles into something more subversive: a dusty woodshop threaded with cinnamon smoke. The opening feels almost medicinal in its clarity, then gives way to sandalwood and cedarwood that seem deliberately unpolished, their rough edges left intact. Guaiac wood adds a tarry, resinous quality that keeps the composition from sliding into conventional territory.
This is Caron refusing refinement. The woods here aren't lacquered or precious—they creak underfoot. Cinnamon flickers through without sweetness, more bark than spice cabinet. Musk in the base provides just enough warmth to anchor it all, but never smooths over the deliberately angular construction.
It suits someone comfortable occupying the margins—wearing tailoring gone slightly askew, reading poetry in translation, preferring conversation to small talk. Not a fragrance that announces itself across a room, but one that makes you lean closer.
