Bright and pure. Light and nostalgic. North evokes memories of drawing on clean white pages, green leaves playing with light, the wood of Swedish saunas, children quietly drawing in a room and the smell of perfect pencils.

The North and South duo is a love story of opposites longing for each other. A story of two souls, two cultures: Scandinavia and the Mediterranean, in an eternal dance of attraction. Two hearts as one. Experience calm, woody North and be mesmerised by warm, spontaneous South. Play with them, wear on their own or layer together. You can create perfect memories of travel and an eternal summer. As every North has its South, every South must have its North.

North and South are bottled in French glass, with metal caps decorated in geographical coordinates of Scandinavia and Italy. The names of the fragrances are engraved on metal medallions tied on with natural rope. Contrasting colours are used in the coding of the perfumes; cooler North is warmed-up with golden bronze accents while the glowing nostalgia of South is cooled-down with silvered elements.

Editor's Notes

North is a gust of cold air that has gathered the scent of woods and herbs, passing through a snow-capped forest. It is a tremendous radiance, illuminating sunlight, a cooling supercritical fluid. North is the colour white - or the brightest grey - a frigid flash of aldehydes, glacial flowers and arctic herbs, ozone, and the cooling side of black pepper. All of this frames a woody heart based around two cedarwood extractions: Virginian cedar, resembling cypress, with the characteristic aroma of dry pencil shavings; and camphoraceous and bright Atlas cedar. This is extended with touches of vetiver, nutmeg, and patchouli, softened with jasmine. A fragrance to cool and revive, like a splash in an icebath.
