By the editors · 2 min readPoison Extrait de Parfum is François Demachy's 2014 reduction of the original 1985 composition — stripped to its essential tension between coriander and tuberose. The opening is sharp and culinary: coriander releases a citrus-adjacent spice before pepper adds a dry, cutting edge. What follows is a tight floral duet of Indian tuberose absolute and May rose, both rendered at concentration level that makes them feel thick and almost tactile.
Vanilla closes the composition, binding the spice and flower into something warm without becoming sweet. This is not the original Poison's maximalist cloud. It is a precise, smaller object — appropriate for deliberate use.
