Djhenné is inspired by the city of Djenné in Mali, which lies on an island in the middle of a river delta. The fragrance theme is that of a lush oasis.
Pierre sums up the effect of the perfume with the remark ‘to bask in the sun’: Djhenné is like a warm shadow. A leathery envelope of golden wheat and myrrh, offering protection from the burning sun with delicate mint leaves and seringa flowers.
On an exploratory tour through an oasis, Pierre Guillaume presents us with an aromatic, woody orchestration of leather and warm sand, oscillating between floral freshness and an accord of grey lavender, green mint, lilac and the warmth of a light leather note composed of blue cedar, myrrh essence, cocoa beans and wheat absolute.
