Calabrian Bergamot

Calabrian Bergamot plays a decisive role as its fullness takes hold.

It unleashes a powerful dose of its sweet and spicy charm, fully cloaking the structure of the cologne. Grown in southern Italy, Essence of Bergamot is obtained by cold expression of the peel. It brings a distinct, sweet freshness to fragrances and adds a special radiance to citrus notes.

Haitian Vetiver

Vetiver is originally from India and Indonesia, but also grows in Haiti and on Reunion Island. It is a perennial plant with fragrant roots. The essential oil is obtained by steam distillation. Its persistent accords are used in woody, chypre and amber fragrances. Vetiver unfurls its bold sophistication in the base note of Eau Sauvage Cologne.

Pink Pepper from Reunion Island

The ‘Pepper Tree’ bears clusters of berries that are used as spice and known as ‘Pink Pepper’ or ‘Brazil Pepper’. Native to South America (Brazil), the tree is now grown on Reunion Island, hence its nickname the 'Pink Gold of Reunion'. Red in colour and the size of a peppercorn, its berries grow in clusters and emit an intense spicy fragrance. Pink Pepper Extract is obtained by using a CO2 extraction technique, which allows the peppercorn to retain its full aroma.

Pink Pepper welds its fresh and spicy charm, like a persistent and surprising lemon pepper.

PERFUMER'S WORD

"With Eau Sauvage Cologne I tried to keep the apparent simplicity of this construction. A clarity that actually hides nuances and details, darkness and light."

François Demachy
