ZEU001 EAU DE PARFUM

[Zeus]

A fragrant expression of Zeus the God of Gods and Men - the thunderer who marshals the clouds.

The fragrance is a classic masculine composition, 'fit for a King' as goes the saying.

In composing it however, we could not resist the obvious meteorological metaphors that parallel the fragrance and the cloud-gathering Lord of the Skies.

The accord opens with a jolt - an electric flash as bergamot, lemon and pink pepper flare across the sky like a warning.

A musky cloud of jasmine and patchouli billows, engulfing the effervescent top notes - their vapours vanish into the ether.

The charged cloud swirls and darkens the sky. It circles overhead - the Bringer of Storms now ready to explode.

The heavens give way to the accord's crescendo – a thunderous clap of ambroxan, cypress and birch booms, crashing from above.
