AEDES DE VENUSTAS

CIERGE DE LUNE covers a thrilling range, from crystalline high notes to a deep nighttime purr of spicy vanilla embellished with sprigs of incense. For its first collaboration with AEDES DE VENUSTAS in 2016, Pellegrin drew from a rich portfolio. “Our Madagascar vanilla absolute is the most faithful to the natural ingredient,” he explains. More woody and amber than its Tahitian counterpart with a tawny leathery hue, this vanilla forms the heart of the composition, revealing a darker side. An airy blast of hedione transforms the delectable pod into a cactus flower, whose pristine petals are fleshed out by ylang-ylang.
