Aleksandr - Eau de Parfum
€190.00
Description
Volume
Taking you through the account of a fiery gentlemen’s duel in a forest outside St. Petersburg.
A scent that travels, like a bullet in the air, from a cold exterior to a warm heart.
Leathery, sophisticated & warm.
History: January 1837, St. Petersburg, Russia.
On a frosty winter afternoon, a fiery gentleman finishes his toilette by dabbing on a preparation of Neroli and Violet.
He draws down his cuffs, dons a heavy fur, and strides out in polished leather boots.
As he rides off on his sledge, the woody scent of Fir fills the air.
Beyond the snow-laden trees, in a clearing bathed in amber light, his fateful duel awaits.
Developed with Yann Vasnier.

The story
A link between History, Architecture and Perfume...
Architectural history has the particularity of transporting us physically into the past, allowing us to understand its meaning. In a synesthetic experience of architecture, what we feel and smell is just as important as what we see. In essence, architecture is experience.
For Arquiste, the research carried out for the creation of a fragrance inspired by real-life experiences is just as complete as the research that leads to the restoration of an old building. Under construction, the clues justify the structure.
Through the meticulous search for authentic sources, the analysis of a specific time and place begins. Through the study of building materials, the literary history of the place and the site itself, the olfactory experience becomes more understandable.
Arquiste wishes to interpret the past in the present through perfume in order to link the olfactory memory to great moments in history.
