Sillage – parfum

SILLAGE is composed like a photograph with a long exposure time. What is a point in the human eye becomes a line in the crystalline eye. Light takes on a physical presence, materializes and becomes permanent. The composition opens with notes of oud, but not as a clear image, rather as an afterimage. Agarwood usually takes up the entire space, giving the perfume a dark undertone: in SILLAGE, the oud is a light ribbon along which the other ingredients are arranged. Imagine a vast, open landscape, rugged hills closing in on the horizon, with sharp parallel lines cutting the image into two equal parts. We have blended the lines with subtle notes of saffron and violet, which act as a delicate movement that softens the edges, a barely perceptible vibration. SILLAGE is a fragrance balanced on the edge of impressions. Its individual elements are fluid, as if they were in constant motion. It transports us from the dry roughness of resins to the warm embraces of musk and vanilla in a discreet and silent way. A sillage usually says “I've been here”. The perfume boldly states "I am present" - like an aftertaste, the imprint of a body on the sheets, the emotion left by a touch. 3

INSPIRATION / PERFUMER

The French word sillage means the wake left in the water by a sailing ship. In the context of perfume, sillage is described as a trail of scent that lingers in the air after a person has left. The train of a dress, the tail of a peacock, an invisible trace. Right behind you.
