Silky and luminous yet quietly assertive, Scent opens with a cool ripple of green tea brightened by bergamot and cardamom, then unfurls a signature bouquet where jasmine sambac and an airy mother of pearl hibiscus glow beside an elegant oriental rose, before easing into a sensual finish of ambergris, vanilla, sandalwood, supple leather, and earthy patchouli that feels radiant, modern, and effortlessly refined.

Story and Positioning
Created as a portrait of refined sensuality, Scent pairs translucent florals and tea with an ambered woody glow for a poised signature that suits day to evening. It anchors the house’s Scent universe, later explored through Scent Sheer and Scent Intense, and will appeal to lovers of amber floral tea styles in the spirit of Atelier Cologne Ambre Nue and Agent Provocateur Eau Emotionnelle.
Bottle and Design
Scent is set in a low, arch-topped rectangle of clear, weighty glass that curves gently at the sides and feels calm and balanced in the hand. The face carries a small matte black plaque placed low and centered, leaving the rest of the front quiet so the pale liquid does the talking. A short, centered spray column rises from a neat collar and is capped with a smooth cylinder that seats flush without fuss. The heel is thick and perfectly level for a planted stance on the vanity, and the atomizer releases a fine, even veil for controlled wear. The outer packaging follows the minimalist mood with clean typography and a restrained palette that frames the bottle with quiet confidence.
