Frapin pays tribute to Edmond Dantes, the Earl of Monte Cristo, with an olfactory interpretation of the phrase "Attendre & Espérer" (Wait & Hope). This dandy woods fragrance, inspired by the elegance, strength, intelligence, and mystery of Dantes, captures the essence of winter with a unique walnut-vetiver accord. Marked by Taoism and Christian hope, the scent is a rich blend of philosophy and intrigue, a perfect cloak of warmth and sophistication during the colder months.

Akro is brand-new to Libertine and is already making waves. Whether a hedonistic hit of hashish (Haze) or the comforting tonic of a morning tea (Infuse), Akro captures the vices and day-to-day pleasures of life through scent. With Bake, the alluring aroma of a bakery or cake shop teases the senses. While key notes of Chantilly cream and vanilla underpin a rich heart and base, a top-note burst of lemon zest offers a delightfully fresh twist to this moreish amber fragrance.

While Turkish house Nishane takes much of its inspiration from the modern vision of its Istanbul home, Favonius draws its lines from the mythology of Flora, the ancient Roman Goddess of flowers. And while no love story is complete without a rose, to characterise this woody amber fragrance by its floral heart fails to paint the whole picture. A leading top note of incense and an anchoring base note of oud help round off what is a bright, multifaceted fragrance for winter.

With Soufflot, London perfumery Miller Harris delivers a weightless amber as delicate as it is poetic. Inspired by Ernest Hemingway’s first novel, The Sun Also Rises, and under the creative direction of FiFi award-winning Jillian Freidman, perfumer Mathieu Nardin composes a dreamy scent that follows the cascading aromas of Rue de Soufflot. Think brioche, cinnamon, hazelnut and honey, yet accented by a gentle breeze of blossoms and tobacco.

An audacious fragrance that revels in creamy tuberose and playful vanilla. With BDK’s universal amber, perfumer Dominique Ropion pays tribute to the majesty of Madagascan vanilla and the infinite depth of leather, creating a scent as warm and cosy as you would hope to don during the coldest of winter nights. But make no mistake, this winter warmer is ultra chic too, positively brimming with glitz, glamour and sophistication.

The joy of an Obvious perfume is in the simplicity and clarity of each creation. With Scoville, this intense eau de parfum roars in much the same vein. Aflame with hot spice, this soft amber showcases a fiery blend of pepper (black and Sichuan), red chilli and piri piri root. However, the composition is cunningly tempered by a comforting key note of amber and a soothing vanilla base - enough to put out the blaze, but a gentle heat smoulders on.
