The fragrance

Premiere.

One composition, worn from morning to evening. Here is how it is built, and how it wears.

The brief

Premiere was made to be the only fragrance a person needs.

It opens bright and settles warm. It is legible at arm's length and quiet up close. It holds for a working day and is gone by morning. Eight materials, no more — each one named on request, none of them hidden.

How Premiere is built

A fragrance is read top to base. Premiere is composed so each movement hands cleanly to the next.

The opening — Bergamot · Lavender · Pink pepper

The opening

Bergamot pressed cold. Lavender cut from the plateau above Grasse. It holds for a quarter of an hour, then gives way.

The heart — Jasmine grandiflorum

The heart

Jasmine picked before the sun reaches the field. The note the others are built around, and the reason the harvest matters.

The base — Sandalwood · Oak · Amber

The base

Sandalwood, oak, a measure of amber. What remains on skin at the end of a working day.

The making

Each bottle is blown by hand, so no two are identical at the shoulder.

The brass cap is turned, not cast. Premiere is filled, sealed, and checked by the person who made it.
