1. Ambre Papier Extrait de Parfum – Atelier Materi

The classic amber accord of this perfume extract is luminous and enveloping, with a superb complexity of leather, benzoin and saffron. Comforting with a touch of licorice.

2. The Omniscient Mr. Thompson – Penhaligon’s
A mysterious fragrance of iris root butter, vanilla, and leather, whose name recalls a fatherly presence with more than one trick up his sleeve!

3. Eau Sacrée Extrait de Parfum – Heeley
For a lover of woodwork and incense, Eau Sacrée has a dark profile that evokes a time gone by. Delicately smoky, this fragrance of precious resins is one of my favourites.

4. Escentric 05 – Escentric Molecules
A photorealistic garden by the Mediterranean. This fragrance honours synthetic molecules, while imagining aromatic herbs and the sun warming wood and earth. The contrast that transports!

5. L’Homme à la rose – Maison Francis Kurkdjian
Illuminated by grapefruit and accompanied by green notes, rose is at the heart of this fresh, almost aquatic fragrance. Perfect all year round, for the office or going out.

1. Bois Impérial – Essential Parfums
A vibrant fragrance where vetiver blends with basil and dry wood. Fresh, elegant and intensely modern.
 
2. Encens Suave EDP – Matiere Premiere
Frankincense becomes velvety thanks to vanilla and labdanum. A warm, spiritual and sensual fragrance, like a mystery in the twilight.
 
3. Premier Figuier – L’Artisan Parfumeur
A fig tree still young, milky and tender, between green leaf and creamy fruit. A simple, luminous Mediterranean getaway.
 
4. Gris Charnel Extrait – BDK Parfums
Powdery iris, black fig and amber woods create an urban sensuality that’s both carnal and enveloping. A blurred elegance that lingers on the skin.
 
5. Tilia – Marc-Antoine Barrois
A tender, sunny fragrance, where lime blossom evokes the sweetness of shared memories. Soothing, gentle, yet vibrant with life.

1. Halfeti Cedar – Penhaligon’s
A glass of aged rum in hand, held in a leather armchair with a patina of age. Halfeti Cedar envelops the skin like a royal cloak, blending woody warmth and amber mystery. It’s the elegance of an Ottoman palace, the power of a deep gaze, a sophistication that leaves a noble, bewitching imprint.
 
2. Ganymede EDP – Marc-Antoine Barrois
A golden star in a galaxy of leather and mineral. Ganymede is the perfect alchemy of classicism and futurism. It shines like gold lamé on a scalpel-cut suit. It’s a fragrance that floats above the ground, elegant and sunny, made for discreet conquerors.
 
3. Molecule 01 + Patchouli – Escentric Molecules
A woody whisper in a world of noise. Molecule 01 + Patchouli is an invisible but unforgettable aura. It doesn’t impose, it suggests. Minimalist, modern, almost esoteric, it evokes a forest in the rain: discreet, vibrant, infinitely pure.
 
4. Raw Gold – Thomas de Monaco
Raw and precious, instinctive and refined. Raw Gold is the collision of wild nature and unfiltered luxury. It’s the scent of bare leather caressed by the sun, of white-hot metal, of skin gilded by the wind. A magnetic aura, animal and spiritual, made for those who boldly embrace their duality.
 
5. Basilico & Fellini – Vilhelm Parfumerie
A stroll through the alleys of Rome, the sun caressing your shoulders, the fountains bursting with laughter. Basilico & Fellini blends the herbaceous freshness of basil with the juicy sweetness of fig, with a touch of vetiver for elegance. A cinematic fragrance, joyful and nonchalant, like wearing a Fellini film on your skin.

ALLAN
Fragrance Coordinator, Etiket Toronto
 
1. Pacific Rock Moss – Goldfield & Banks Australia
Crisp, aquatic and sunlit with a hint of coastal moss. Pacific Rock Moss captures the spirit of laid-back elegance. It’s the perfect gift for a Father who appreciates freshness and freedom, evoking beachside serenity with every spray.
 
2. Santal Blond – Atelier Materi
Creamy sandalwood is elevated by spicy, subtly floral nuances, creating a refined and intimate scent. Ideal for a Father who exudes quiet strength and sophistication, this fragrance feels warm, grounded and deeply comforting.
 
3. Gris Charnel EDP – BDK Parfums
A sensual blend of fig, black tea and velvety sandalwood, Gris Charnel is both modern and mysteriously timeless. Perfect for the stylish Dad with a touch of intrigue, it’s a scent that lingers long after he leaves the room.
 
4. Ganymede EDP – Marc-Antoine Barrois
When mineral and magnetic meet smooth suede and violet in this futuristic, polarizing and addictive creation. A brilliant choice for a forward-thinking father. Ganymede embodies confidence, intellect and distinction.
 
5. Arabesque – Ormonde Jayne
Rich with spices, resins and luxurious florals, Arabesque is a powerful and opulent fragrance with global sophistication. For the worldly, cultured dad, it’s a scent that tells stories – refined, mysterious and unforgettable.
