An abstraction of tonka. For the first time, Pierre Guillaume Paris is offering two consecutive creations on the same theme. With Tonka Bodykon 31, Pierre Guillaume introduces the ‘tonka’ theme by composing a gentle amber fragrance that highlights the tonka bean in all its identity. Refined by balsamic notes, it is faithfully accompanied and enhanced in all its natural facets.
As an immediate response to this first, almost figurative approach focused on the tonka material, the perfumer contrasts it with an abstract vision. He no longer relies on the concrete presence of tonka absolute at the heart of the formula, but on its traditional olfactory characteristics: balsamic warmth, almond and tobacco notes, coumarin. By retaining the usual tonka notes with the other ingredients, he maintains the illusion. L'Air & L'Eros is therefore an abstraction of tonka. Like an olfactory web, tonka bean runs through the entire fragrance, hinted at by the balsamic facets of lilac, the almond and tobacco notes of coumarin and the amber warmth of white cocoa.
The inspiration
The air, Eros, tonka particles carried by a fresh breeze, like a light breeze, with the scent of lilac... as if the wind were the best lover.
The perfume
L’Air & L’Eros: a balsamic floral fragrance reminiscent of the first warm spring breeze that caresses bare skin. A hint of lilac, whose balsamic and spicy facets harmonise with particles of tonka, unfolds in the gentle warmth of amber and white cocoa.
The name
A balsamic flower shower, a balmy breeze on bare skin on the first warm days of spring.
