Marc-Antoine Barrois - Encelade
A new planet, a new universe. Designed by French sculptor Jean Boggio, the golden case of this new fragrance is an invitation to discover a wonderland. Encelade, a fresh jungle on the edge of a volcano, is a powerful and captivating perfume. Its sensual and unique green and woody notes will seduce both men of character and women seeking sophistication.
The inspiration
Encelade (Enceladus) is a moon of Saturn, discovered in 1789. A bluish celestial body covered with snow and fresh water, it is likely seismically active. Beyond the fantastical notion that Encelade might one day be covered by a lush jungle, the mythological figure embodies strength, rebellion, and character, while the moon represents freshness, sweetness, and purity.
In mythology, Enkelados, son of Gaia (the Earth) and Uranus (the Sky), was brought down by Athena after giants attempted to climb Mount Olympus to reach the gods. Legend says he was buried beneath the earth of Sicily and still breathes through the fumes and eruptions of Mount Etna.
A play of light and shadow in a perfume that joyfully embraces its paradoxes. The main accord of rhubarb, cedarwood, and vetiver expresses the scent of earth, plant sap, and lush nature. Green and woody notes mingle with smoky and animal leather. Milky sandalwood and tonka bean lend the skin sensuality and longing. The pure seduction of a perfume that exerts a wild attraction.
