Macanudo

Exuberant, grounded, sunlit

The polo pony of endless summers. Macanudo — 'magnificent' in the Argentine slang of the field — played with the exuberance of a child chasing the sun, grounded and joyful in the same stride.

Macanudo represents both the groundedness and exuberance of nature — steadfast purpose with glimmering rays of love and light.

The Wear

A scent in three acts

It opens

Cut grass and bergamot — the polo field at ten in the morning.

It turns

Hay, jonquille, and wet earth kicked up from galloping hooves.

It settles

Haitian vetiver and tonka — sunlight lingering on skin.

Accord
A blended impression of several notes reading as one — the chords of perfumery.
Sillage
From the French for 'wake' — the scented trail a fragrance leaves in the air behind its wearer.
The pyramid
Top notes greet first and lift away; heart notes carry the composition; base notes remain on skin for hours.
