This wonderful coffret contains the following three fragrances by Frédéric Malle and the red Bakelite travel spray case:
Uncut Gem
Frédéric Malle has always been fascinated by walking the line. He has always understood that a touch of extravagance in the right hands can have more power and verve than anything else that is more restrained.
Hence his search for what he describes as “an almost too obvious eau de toilette”: a fragrance that plays with the tired codes of masculinity while extracting their mystical power to create something beautiful and irresistible. Uncut Gem pushes the boundaries of good taste, lassoing them and taming them casually like a bucking horse.
Vétiver Extraordinaire
Vétiver Extraordinaire is highly unusual, with an overdose of vetiver (around 25 percent, three times as much as in other vetiver fragrances) and has sparked new enthusiasm for this classic men's fragrance category. Here, Dominique Ropion introduces a new type of vetiver from Haiti that is less bitter and combines it with five wood notes to highlight the fragrance's various facets. The result is surprisingly fresh, crisp, and harmonious. A highly polished, almost pure note that expresses the true essence of vetiver without ever being overpowering.
Musc Ravageur
Sensual and sophisticated. Powerful yet completely controlled. Dramatic and mysterious. “Musc Ravageur” is a perfume for adults, an uncompromising oriental fragrance that trumps passing fads. Bergamot, mandarin, and cinnamon are set against a sensual backdrop of vanilla, musk, and amber. No flowers, just a refined and sublime scent for the skin.
