Consider Absolue de Mousse on its own terms, which begins with a blast of natural materials that fall in line. The process is slow and elongated, as one expects from a concentrate like this. But it is one that never loses its radiance. It rewards patience - soaring with its majestic layers of earthy green mosses, herbs, spices, and resins. Offset with bittersweet myrrh, Absolue de Mousse features an oscillation between seemingly opposing textures: sharpness and smooth softness.

This becomes a dramatic gulf: a space that Manuel Cross sweeps and fills with orange blossom, clary sage, artemisia, rose, musk, and a touch of smoke. Its feeling is grand, robustly spicy, and yet filled with a surprising brightness that works its way through much shadowy material. Absolute de Mousse pulls inwards, like a swirl with its own centre of gravity. Fall into this spicy vortex, and enjoy.
