Inspiration

This fragrance pays homage to Grasse’s storied past, where the art of perfumery began with the gilded allure of scented leather gloves. Perfumer Fabrice Pellegrin, a native of Grasse, infuses the scent with nostalgia for his roots—melding the elegance of tradition with the wild, untamed spirit of raw materials. It’s a tribute to the duality of refinement and primal instinct, much like the town itself, where polished craftsmanship meets the earthy heartbeat of Provence.


Scent Profile

Bitter camphor and earthy violet leaves sharpen the supple richness of Grasse leather, evoking the smoky tannery stalls of Pellegrin’s youth. Iris tempers the roughness with its powdery softness, like light glinting off a masterfully tooled glove, while animalic musks hum beneath—a reminder of leather’s untamed origins. The result is a fragrance both polished and feral: a whispered secret between history and skin.
