A uniquely powerful and sensual olfactory signature, ENCELADE blends the unexpected fresh scent of rhubarb with a smoky, sensual and powerful leather, complimented by the woody elegance of sand vetiver and sandalwood.
"A great green leather, sensual and powerful."
THE IMAGINARY OF ENCELADE
Named after one of Saturn’s moons, rich in geysers, and a giant, son of Gaia, whose jerks cause earthquakes and whose breath stirs the eruptions of Mount Etna.
This tenebrous vetiver is carved from a dense black material streaked with green glows. Its verticality is intensified from the top by a striking rhubarb, acidic and fruity, a scent of vibrant sap that gives way to a powerful smoky, leathery heart. A bold, uncompromising green leather with almost vintage accents, softened by the milky smokiness of sandalwood. Tamed by bitter almond, hay and tobacco notes from tonka bean, vetiver unveils its nutty facets. For in a delicious paradox, volcanic ENCELADE reveals a sensual, addictive side, without ever losing its primal strength or wild magnetism. A unique olfactory signature.
QUENTIN BISCH, THE NOSE OF ENCELADE
Quentin Bisch envisions ENCELADE as an encounter between raw nature and sophistication. This unique fragrance combines the voluptuous woods of cedar and sandalwood with juicy, green notes of rhubarb. The depth of smoky leather adds a bold and intriguing signature, while a hint of vetiver evokes damp earth after rain. For Quentin, ENCELADE is a play on paradoxes: powerful yet delicate, luminous yet dark, an ode to the duality of human emotions.
