Elie Saab La Collection Essence N°6 Vetiver 100ml

Mossy Woods

Notes: Haitian Vetiver, Javanese Vetiver, Bergamot, Papyrus Wood.

Teaming up with Armenian perfumery maestro Francis Kurkdjian, world-renowned haute couturier Elie Saab extends his exquisite artistry to a collection of intoxicating fragrances composed of pure botanical and natural essences.

Forming part of the fashion house’s La Collection des Essences comprising nine editions, N°6 Vetiver transports the senses to a traditional barbershop with soapy-clean, green notes of shaving cream imbuing the air. Haitian and Indonesian Vetiver unearth a fragrant freshness, enhanced by zesty accords of Bergamot and smoky Papyrus Wood. Evocative of a fresh garden in the spring, it boasts a crisp, grassy-green, botanical element that’s purely alluring.

Bottled in a multi-dimensional glass flacon that allows the minty-green hues of the concentrated essence to shine through with pure clarity.

Mist one or two sprays around your neck and on your pulse points (areas where the body is warmer, such as the wrists, ankles, inside the elbows and behind the knees) from a minimum distance of 6 inches, then allow to dry without rubbing.

Tip: Can be worn alone or layered with other essences within the collection for a bespoke fragrance.

Founded in 1988, Maison Margiela is synonymous with unconventional principles, synergising unique heritage with an exploration of deconstruction. The brand’s fragrances Mutiny and Untitled echo the designer’s values of nonconformity, diversity and creativity, while the best-selling Replica fragrance collection is designed to resonate with the imagination. Re-transcribing the scents of our collective memory, each unisex fragrance is housed in an apothecary-style bottle with a cotton label.

Like an haute couture dress, Elie Saab fragrances adorn the feminine form with radiant sensuality. The Lebanese designer’s segue into the world of perfumery in 2011 resulted in a curated scent collection that evokes the same elegance and presence as the couturier’s gowns.
