Le 8 EDP 50 ml

In the Chinese culture, the serpent represents transformation and intelligence, patience, wisdom and mystery.

The number 8 suggests the bucket of infinity. A leap into infinity.

What could be more inspiring than working with these 2 values added to a great country of thousands years old, with its many specific features and distinctive characteristics.

 

With his 8, the designer sets off into a new land of symbols, imagination and daring.

"This creation, this 'ruby and gold' snake, gives me a new platform, the chance to express my attraction for adventure, the kind that leads to the Far East, to an ancestral China with stamped formulas. This perfume is a controlled extravagance, it's theatrical.”

 

"I wanted a fragrance with strong, powerful accents, but also one that was slow and traditional. I embarked on a kind of personification, slipping into many skins, those of a warrior, a wise man, a courtesan, like a studio actor in a film, as if caught up in using scents that seemed stereotyped. This new snake is a kind of joyful introspection, a carnival, an anthology of preconceived ideas that had to be married without forcing them.”

 

"Ce 8 est une nouvelle liberté, une sorte de transfert amoureux. C’est un serment, une promesse tenue, une extrême obligeance.”

 

This new snake, with notes both tense and languid, comes with an atmospheric text where every word is a key, and a transfigured portrait of the artist himself.

 

“Like the scent of a forbidden city — unknown, romantic, unforgettable.” SHL
