“With the Extraits de Parfum collection from MATIERE PREMIERE I want a balance between olfactory Achieve fullness and spiciness. More tangible textures, deeper quality, greater comfort.”
Aurelien Guichard Founder and creative perfumer
CRYSTAL SAFFRON EXTRAIT Guest Ingredient – Myrrh Oil from Somalia
“Myrrh is a textural note often used to bring a woody, warm touch to compositions. I see myrrh as a bright black color. She brings a rounded richness to the radiant, vibrant aspects of Crystal Saffron.”
SANTAL AUSTRAL EXTRAIT Guest Ingredient – Black Cardamom Absolute from Nepal
“I used a Black Cardamom Absolute, developed exclusively for MATIERE PREMIERE. It brings a unique intensity, both smoky and woody. He takes Santal Austral into spicier and livelier realms.”
ENCENS SUAVE EXTRAIT Guest Ingredient – Amber
“I love the amber, gold and brown tones that come together in one piece of incense resin. This amber note, a classic in French perfumery, enhances the rich impression of warmth in Encens Suave.”
RADICAL ROSE EXTRAIT Guest Ingredient – Immortelle Absolute from Croatia
“I chose Immortelle because of its very distinct character between salt and flower. It highlights a deeper, more robust side of the rose note and adds a darker, more mineral facet to Radical Rose.”
FALCON LEATHER EXTRAIT Guest Ingredient – Oud Assafi Oil from Bangladesh
“Regarded as one of the highest quality in the world, this special oud is incredibly deep, dark and rich. It brings warmth while emphasizing the literal, smooth and suede-like aspect in Falcon Leather.”
