New Arrival in Fragrance

Jovoy’s new fragrance, “21 Conduit St”, revisits a great classic of English perfumery while giving it a new, intriguing and decidedly modern twist.

Whether the memory conjures dried flowers from Norfolk tucked into ornate sachets, or the fragrance of a bottle of authentic British Eau de Cologne, lavender is to English perfumery what scones are to teatime.

The result of a creative tandem, 21 Conduit St gives the scent of lavender a singular brightness. The accord comes from a formula by Oli Marlow, whose fascination with this aromatic note goes back to his childhood. He dreamt of giving it greater contrast, making it more multi-facetted, upping the tangy, fruity freshness and warming it through with resinous notes.

“It’s a lavender that’s chiseled from the freshness of cold, crisp oranges, the cheekiness of cassis and the bittersweet comforting warmth of pine”  Marlow explains.

In Paris, his meeting with the perfumer Marie Schnirer (Laboratoire Maelstrom) opened the door to a new world of raw materials, most notably a quality of Javanese Vetiver that enriches the ensemble with a whorl of smoky, earthy notes.

“It’s like a very original note of hashish”  Marie Schnirer observes.

“But,” she adds, “above all, the secret of 21 Conduit St is the richness of its dual lavender - a very aromatic essential oil and an absolute with the coumarone notes of a plant that has spent several days drying in the sun - it radiates all the way through to the perfume’s woody base.”

It’s also a lavender cloaked in the freshness of citrus and the fruity notes of fir balsam, whose candied accents evoke a tantalisingly soft amaretto accord, balanced by a mysterious, shadowy, woody facet.

Sleek, intense, and daring, 21 Conduit St radiates English elegance tinged with a dash of impertinence that gives it all its charm.

A signature perfume that beckons you back, again and again. A gentlemanly masterpiece that men will love - and women won’t be able to get enough of.

A letter from Alberto Morillas on Très Chère:

"Dear Stranger,

This letter might never reach you even though this is for you, just like this perfume. Our eyes have only met once but I feel like I have always known you. We were on the Paris-Venice train, that day when the train stopped in the middle of nowhere at night.

You were leaving when I was just coming in for dinner. You brushed past me, I looked at you. You said “Sorry!” My eyes stared at you, your profile, your eyelashes curves, the hem of your lips. One second which will last for eternity. One second, just enough time to create this perfume. It tells the story of this moment which has made such an impression on me. Everything was there. The sweetness of your voice, your gestures grace, which the musk roundness and the sandalwood and vanilla mellowness, seize so well here. Your silhouette outlined by the light, I see it as graceful as a white flower.

I looked for you for a long time, I would have loved to see you again. I am catching the train back tonight. I will keep these words to myself. And this perfume too.                 

Alberto Morillas"

-Top Notes: Orange blossom

“We don’t know each other yet, but I know you won’t be able to live without me from now on. I am going to be your new obsession. You won’t see me coming and first, will only perceive my delicate Bulgarian rose whiff.

Then, the pink pepper and the chamomile blue will come along and subtly inebriate your senses with their spicy scent. Some say they surrendered at that very moment, totally taken by those spices to which I have added just enough of styrax and oud wood, to make it more sleek and graceful. I am not like other roses. You can’t pick me. You can not catch me. I am the one who comes to you. My scent is as powerful as woods and salves and hides the musk sensuality which quivers underneath the skin.”

-Top Notes: Hedione, Tunisian neroli

-Middle Notes: Tuberose, orange blossom

-Base Notes: Sri Lankan sandalwood, white musk

Bright red embers slowly burn bits of oud wood; its smoke gives the full intensity of this amazing material.

“Perfect Oud” is the memory of this burnt wood for which Alberto Morillas made the decision not to include any oud wood essence. “Perfect Oud” is an emotion. The one of slow rising heat. A scent of leather and smoke which penetrates the skin and linens.

The rarely used Alaska cedar dominates here, revealing leather and incense notes. If coriander and bergamot oils cool it down, cade oil joins in to invigorate the blend.

Hot and radical, “Perfect Oud” eventually bends thanks to the rose and iris oils.

And smoke can turn into a marvellous wake 

-Top Notes: Bulgarian rose, bergamot

-Middle Notes: Iris, oud wood

-Base Notes: Alaskan cedarwood

Vetiver is the most predominant and stylish oil in men’s perfumery, which usually leaves an everlasting mark to the ones who cross its woody path. For Mythique Vétyver , Alberto Morillas has gathered altogether everything he loves: first, a vivid subtlety, which a combination of citrus and bergamot turns almost bitter and citrus fruit like.

Second, an oddly rose-like nature which Alberto Morillas found into the geranium, the flower he likes calling the “man’s rose”. And last, a dense and smoky identity, which has been enhanced with Papyrus and the woody-ambery notes of Patchouli and Labdanum Ciste. Yet at the heart of this magnificent brew, lays the intense and perfectly balanced notes of Haitian Vetiver.

-Top Notes: Bergamot, lemon

-Middle Notes: Geranium bourbon, labdanum ciste

-Base Notes: Papyrus wood, vetiver, patchouli

Powder foundation, make-up and cream scents... A woman is getting ready while a man is watching her. This man is Alberto Morillas, perfumer, who looks at the scene with his artistic eyes: from that moment he creates Luxury, a pure concentrate of femininity.

The most precious ingredients enhance the skin's natural scent like a hint of blush enhances the pink of a cheekbone. It smells like make-up, enveloping balms, sweet milk with floral and musky notes. There is orange blossom, a beautiful iris to which Alberto Morillas has added irone, this molecule naturally present in the rhizome and which gives the perfume its powdery signature. Then appear the shrouding notes of benzoin, vanilla and Tonka bean, to offer a perfume as soft as skin texture. 

-Top Notes: Orange blossom, paradisone

-Middle Notes: Ambrox, iris 

-Base Notes: Benzoin, vanilla, tonka bean, musceone

“Ideal Oud” is the perfumer’s take onto two opposite raw materials, rose and oud wood: fragility and power in one hand, light and darkness, in the other hand.

To get control over the powerful oud wood, Alberto Morillas has combined it with a duet of roses, Bulgarian and Centifolia. The result? A subtle oud wood turned into a dark and mysterious flower, spiced up with fiery rose pepper and saffron.

One can feel the dominating, heady leather-wood scent, enhanced by papyrus wood and labdanum. “Ideal Oud” is as much for women as for men. Nothing too overwhelming or too brutal. But rather, a perfume as soft as silk satin on your skin. 

-Top Notes: Bulgarian rose,rose absolute, pink pepper

-Middle Notes: Ylang ylang, saffron, Laotian oud wood

-Base Notes: Bourbon vanilla, papyrus wood, labdanum

The scent of another: For your love is about taking risks. Imagine the scent of a kiss, with all the olfactory sensations that you experience in that fraction of second as you approach the other person.

The intimacy of skin, the warm musk of the neck at the hairline and the fruity, powdery fragrance of lipstick. It’s all there. Through notes of raspberry that evoke make-up, Exaltone© with its strangely human scent and the carnal pleasure of Cachalox© that is so close to ambergris.

Finally, for the sensuality of skin touching skin in a gentle caress, benzoin and patchouli add their depth and sweetness. 

In olden days, they wore musk to indicate that they were looking for a lover and a good lover was said to be “as sharp as amber”, meaning they were gifted with great insight.

A note from the perfumer Alberto Morillas: 

“This creation should be thought of as a statement by the perfumer, as we never create for ourselves, only for others. It is also a kind of olfactory game between the tenderness and pleasure two people can share. I like the idea of fun in wearing the same perfume. Therefore, it is just as enticing on a man’s or a woman’s skin.

-Top Notes: Raspberry, Exaltone

-Middle Notes: Cachalox

-Base Notes: Benzoin, patchouli

In perfumery, citrus would usually be used to express invigorating freshness. Like a travel memory in India where the air gets refreshed through sprays of ginger water, Eau de Gingembre is a spicy composition which sparkles like the bright and intense note of ginger that bites the tongue when eaten freshly grated.

At the heart of the fragrance, a ginger CO2 extract, obtained through a process which keeps the entire product integrity. Bergamot, neroli and petitgrain oil bring in their citrus touch when fig Leaf and cypress oil create an everlasting sprightly feel. A clean, sharp and metaphorical creation as sharp as a dive in icy water.

-Top Notes: Bergamot, ginger Co2 extract, neroli, petitgrain

-Middle Notes: Fig leaf, cypress

-Base Notes: White wood

Take a fig leaf, rub it in the palms of your hands, and then afterwards smell your hands. You will sense the green and crisp vivacity of the breaking stem, the roundness of the fruit that is still ripening in the sun and the freshness of an afternoon in the shade of the branches.

Cologne de Figuier is an "olfactory sketch" of this gesture leaving its fragrance on your skin. Based on a fig leaf accord with a zest of bergamot and grapefruit, the vegetal greenness of a galbanum adds a spicy touch of pink pepper. A wood marquetry, with mineral and amber notes, emphasizes the density of the tree, in the background. A fig tree sketched in one stroke by a perfumer, therefore tracing the contours of a bright, green and subtly woody Cologne.

A note from perfumer Alberto Morillas: 

"This Cologne adds another dimension to the fig tree. It sets off the traditional fruity accents of the fig and releases the whole tree. We can sense the wood, the leaves, the branches. I wanted a composition that could be worn at any time of the year, like a desire to instantly remember a nap against a tree. "

-Top Notes: Bulgarian rose, rose absolute, pink pepper

-Middle Notes: Galbanum, pink pepper

-Base Notes: Cetalox, vulcanolide

• Top Notes:  Bergamot, pink peppercorn, blackcurrant

Tobacco Leaves

The Coqui Coqui Perfumeria’s most popular scent. Tabaco is a warm, sensual, nuanced fragrance, made from the wild tobacco leaves of Mexico.

Known locally as the ‘Sacred Tobacco’ plant, the leaves hold a long history in ancient Mexican medicinal and spiritual tradition, since as early as 1400 BC. Tabaco evokes these mystical, ethereal exotic qualities, with a strong, velvety, yet verdant and light, earthy scent.

Fresh Roses

The lively Rosas Frescas scent celebrates the sweet, chic, innocence of living in the moment. The fresh, naïve, dewy scent of red rose petals, uplifting and energetic in its pure positivity, is combined with a twist of citric lemon for an expression of modern sophistication.

Tropical Agave: The exotic, smoky agave plant is synonymous with Mexico and its cultural, medicinal and Mayan heritage.

Coqui Coqui Perfumeria’s Agave fragrance has lingering dry and light, sweet and spicy notes; musky, rich, yet retaining a green and fresh quality. The Agave scent is for the sophisticated and seasoned traveller; bold, curious and unafraid of adventures new.

Sandalwood & Tropical Woods

This exceptional blend of Sandalwood and other tropical wood essences from the Yucatan creates a smooth, mystical, and verdant fragrance.

From lush, dewy jungle, to smoky, humid, earthy forests, and the abundance of exotic palms scattered throughout the Yucatan, the Manderas scent captures the mysteries and magic of the tropical and powerful Mexican woodland.

This enigmatic fragrance is for the confident and bold voyager, with a secretive and sensual side, who to likes to loose oneself in the spirit of the moment.

One of the first fragrances created by the Coqui Coqui Perfumeria and inspired by the paradise shores of Sian Ka´an, Coco Coco is immediately evocative of lush palms and white sand coasts, infused with salty sea air.

Coco Coco turns to the Yucatan’s green coconut as its source, creating fresh, modern and verdant notes, in addition to the classic milky sweet, velvety, vanilla fragrance. Coco Coco is sensual and crisp, transporting the wearer to tropical paradise fantasies.

Frangipani

A powerful and sensual floral scent, Flor de Mayo combines exotic, peachy, spring Mayflower and balmy, sweet and sensual frangipani notes, complete with a twist of fresh, fragile, bewitching jasmine, adding an uplifting luminosity.

Evocative frangipani is native to Mexico and the Caribbean shores, and a flower that is peppered throughout the folklores of the Yucatan and ancient Mayan medicine. Jasmine is also known by natives as huele de noche (scent of the night) for its far-travelling, seductive notes that come to life in the dusky evening breeze.

Flor de Mayo is evocative of dreamy, warm, balmy nights in tropical climates and spontaneous encounters in places new. 

On the coast of Ras Al Jinz, mid-summer, when the sun is in the middle of the sky, Ashore, depicts a mirage of the senses.

As one’s eyes are saturated with light, a surreal brightness blends all that is around them, leaving only the wind that carries the scent of spices from the East. This intoxicatingly white floral fragrance of Jasmine, Ambergris and Sandalwood offers an olfactive interpretation of the union of the sun, the sand and waves while the Cardamom and Turmeric recall the scent of spices from India.

For this fragrance, Amouage brought to life an intense Rose, one that is resilient to withstand extreme weather yet gentle, welcoming and just like the mountains it calls home, rooted to stand the test of time. Texturing the Rose are red notes of Cinnamon and an earthy Jujube Honey Accord which along with Oakwood and Cedarwood paint the Al Hajar mountains in deep crimson hues.

-Top Notes: Pink pepper, cardamom, turmeric

- Middle Notes: Jasmine, solar accord, rose

-Base Notes: Ambegris, olibanum, sandalwood

Meander explores the exhilarating feeling of happiness in a land of fog, lush green mountains and running streams.

Drawing inspiration from the Sultanate’s southernmost Governorate during the monsoon (Khareef) season, Amouage creatively translated the surreal fog using Frankincense and smoky Vetiver, the rich greens with Cypriol and Jonquille, while its caramel-coloured mud is brought to life with earthy Sandalwood, Carrot Heart and Orris root notes.

At the bend of a palace, an unexpected rainforest. The heart of an orange absolute. A succession of azulejos, the spiral of a hidden staircase, petitgrain after petitgrain after petitgrain after petitgrain. Welcoming visions everywhere. The glow of a vanilla absolute. A fountain murmurs, a turret smiles, a garden greets you with its hand. A castle does a peacock wheel. A soft and colourful walk, a stop soon and the surprise of a sweet marshmallow confectionery. The present of childhood. Musks. Getting lost.

A reminiscence of childhood thanks to its marshmallow note brought by the Orange Blossom Absolute, the petitgrain and the Madagascar Vanilla Absolute. Both mellow and airy, thanks to the presence of musks, it has a very round, floral and fruity sweetness. Deliciously light, resolutely addictive. 

Spanish Cedar takes you to the Mediterranean soul of Menorca: deserted sandy coves, surrounded by sun bleached pine and cedar trees infusing the air with an unforgettable resinous aroma.

Spanish Cedar Eau de Parfum captures the exoticism of woody and smoky notes balanced with citrus and piquant notes. A warm and sensual woody fragrance that can evoke seemingly dormant memories and create new ones.

The fall of certainties, but above all the fall of power.

“Power is a balance of forces”

The fall of the King is the fall of all the forces that oppress us and prevent us from moving forward.

 In order for a King to fall, an infinite number of little kingdoms must collapse: Family, Time, Love, Work, Toxic ex-lovers, the Patriarchy, the obligation to be sad, Capital, the obligation to be happy, anguish, sex and everything else that alienates us and prevents us from being truly free.

Iris Lumière Parfum is the silver light of peace and acceptance. 

The moon shines upon the earth and lights everything in its path.  The night is cool and peaceful, a moment of respite for the world.

Iris Lumière is a luminous Parfum, like the moonlight bathing and caressing in a mysterious way. Meadows of Royal irises clothed in regal purpura-blue; rising above the moist soil reflecting the silvery moon - are luxurious gifts from the heavens. The King is in the field – calling His beloved - swaying in silvery breezes whispers of love and passion. 

The parfum is a lunar composition of luxurious Orris Absolut, Hyacinth Orientalis, French Muguet, Galbanum and Frankincense. 

Orris butter is the heart of Iris Lumière. It is extracted from the rhizome of the Iris root. Creating an exquisite woody, violet-like aroma of unearthly beauty and luxurious delicacy.  Rapturous. 

French Muguet’s elegant sweet floral bell shape is borne in sprays during springtime bringing a sense of tender happiness and inspiration.

Hyacinth Orientalis creates a heady green soft note like crushed fresh leaves – deep and exhaultic.  Hyacinth promotes well-being.

Galbanum grows in the marshes of Iran – where the two rivers meet the sea.  It brings an earthy, green and fresh watery quality to the parfum. Verdure.

Frankincense, the purest of incense, lends a fresh balsamic, and woody note to the parfum.  It is a resin from the Boswellia tree that has been used since biblical times for prayer, clarification and healing.

Iris Lumière captures the energy of the “Full Moon”.  Created by Master Perfumer Maurice Roucel.
