Falcon Leather - Extrait de Parfum

Falcon Leather Extrait deepens the signature leather accord of the original fragrance into something darker, richer, and more enveloping. Inspired by the supple texture of falconers’ leather gloves, perfumer Aurélien Guichard intensifies the composition with the addition of rare Oud Assafi Oil from Bangladesh, bringing smoky warmth and velvety depth to the scent.

At the heart of the fragrance, Birch Tar from Finland reveals a powerful yet refined leather character, balanced by the glow of saffron and the resinous richness of cistus labdanum and benzoin. The result is a sensual and sophisticated extrait that lingers close to the skin with remarkable presence and texture.

ABOUT MATIERE PREMIERE

Matière Première—French for “raw material”—is built on a simple yet radical idea: each fragrance is composed around one central natural ingredient, used in its highest possible concentration. From Paris to Grasse, Founder and Perfumer Aurélien Guichard reveals the purest expression of these raw materials, sculpting their texture, nuance, and radiance into modern, immediately readable compositions.

Excellence is at the core of the house. Ingredients are sourced from the finest ethical and organic producers around the world, and each formula is crafted to deliver exceptional sillage—an emotional signature that lingers long after the moment has passed. The meticulous ageing process, from maturation to maceration, ensures depth, clarity, and unmistakable quality.

Matière Première fragrances contain 85–92% natural ingredients, and are entirely vegan, phthalate-free, and free of colorants.

Uniquely, Aurélien Guichard is the only master perfumer to grow his own ingredients: on his family farm in Grasse, he cultivates thousands of tuberose and centifolia rose plants, illuminating creations such as Radical Rose and French Flower.

Matière Première stands at the intersection of innovation and authenticity—contemporary French perfumery devoted to the beauty of a single, extraordinary raw material.
