By the editors · 2 min readA collaboration with style icon Daphne Guinness, and it reads accordingly: theatrical, intensely personal, and far more daring than anything commercially motivated. Bitter orange and incense open with an austere, smoky-citrus accord, saffron providing metallic warmth underneath. The heart is baroque in its ambition — tuberose, rose, jasmine, and iris each contributing distinct weight, tuberose dominating the heady register while iris provides the earthy-powdery counterweight. Oud in the base grounds everything in a polished, non-animalic register; amber extends the warmth and vanilla softens the dry-down; patchouli adds earth. A complete, ambitious oriental floral by Antoine Lie that rewards those willing to meet it on its own demanding terms.
