Marc-Antoine Barrois - Encelade
Green and sensual, Encelade plays with the beguiling effect of its sounds. Addictive notes tease, seduce and, like rays of sunlight breaking through the canopy of the lush green jungle, release new perspectives and aromas again and again. Named after the son of Gaia described in Greek mythology, Saturn's moon Enceladus inspired perfumer Quentin Bisch to create his eponymous composition, seducing with its wild and natural allure.
The fragrance:
Fresh rhubarb unfolds its tart, fresh aroma as Enceladus opens, winding its subtly citrusy sounds around a central chord formed of striking vetiver and leather notes. Smoky-animalic, this heart unfolds as a luscious melange that beds down on a sensual base created from attractive tonka bean and the irresistible woody sounds of atlas cedar and sandalwood. Untamed yet affectionate, Encelade shimmers in paradoxical and deeply attractive facets. Marc-Antoine Barrois' Encelade presents its beguiling sounds dressed in the house's elegant gold-accented bottle.
