“A new interpretation of Oud wood with a contemporary, Parisian twist, pairing it with a red fruit. This fragrance is a beautiful meeting point between tradition and modernity, a bridge that connects the East and the West.” –Véronique Le Bihan, founder
“The founder, Véronique Le Bihan, envisioned a captivating oud that would leave a vibrant impression. I enjoyed working with oud wood by bringing contrast and brightness to it. The bold, sparkling color of blackcurrant, combined with magnolia blossoms, plays with the density of leathery notes and the warmth of oud wood."– Céline Perdriel, perfumer
"In the prestigious region of Grands Crus, nestled between Côte de Beaune and Nuits-Saint-Georges in France, our meticulously selected blackcurrants grow in the gentle hillsides. Burgundy blackcurrants are renowned for their exceptional quality, thanks to this premier wine region, which has selected a
highly aromatic variety that thrives in its ideal terroir. Known as 'Noir de Bourgogne,' this blackcurrant is prized for its tangy, powerful, and highly aromatic flavor. Its extract features green, red fruit, and tangy notes, capturing the essence of this remarkable region.
We have carefully selected geranium from the Yunnan province in China for its unique terroir. The red soils and low rainfall in this region produce an essential oil of exceptional quality, distinguished by a more herbaceous character compared to others
origins. Farmers hand-harvest the leaves and stems, then dry them in the sun before distilling them. The result is an essential oil with floral, rose, green, mentholated, and fruity lychee notes.
Our oud wood is sourced from Vietnam, where our producer holds a CITES certification, ensuring that the extraction and production processes are both sustainable and traceable. This certification not only guarantees compliance with international regulations on the trade of endangered species but also assures the exceptional quality of our raw materials. By working with certified suppliers, we are able to offer our customers fragrances that are not only luxurious and unique but also responsibly and ethically produced." – Atelier Materi
