The Muse
Karat EG
Nostalgic, hopeful, budding
The mare of spring seasons. Karat EG arrived when everything was beginning again — a rose of a horse, elegant and a little wild, forever associated with first blooms at the rail.
Karat EG embodies nostalgia for moments in our past, and the bright hopefulness for the future.
The Wear
A scent in three acts
It opens
Fresh turned earth — the paddock after rain.
It turns
An intoxicatingly dirty Turkish rose blooms against carrot heart.
It settles
Patchouli and amber — spring's promise kept close to the skin.
The Nose
Carlos Benaïm
“The art of perfume is in the olfactory image — the lingering impression left in the air after its wearer has left the room.”
One of the living legends of modern perfumery. Son of a pharmacist who distilled plants and flowers, Carlos' earliest recollections are the smells of Tangiers. Composing in four dimensions, he is an architect of the conceptual.
