Not disclosed

Alone in Babylon shakes up the codes of gourmand perfumery. From the opening, a kaleidoscope of tuberose and plantain banana, lifted by a nail polish accord and a touch of petrol, gives the scent a lacquered, almost cosmetic facet.

Castoreum and Mysore sandalwood deepen the composition, before a base of vanilla, tonka bean, leather and musk. A free, daring creation, between beauty and strangeness.

Alone in Babylon in detail

Stéphane Humbert Lucas, a painter-perfumer, composes his fragrances like paintings. Alone in Babylon, from The 777 Collection, pairs an electric tuberose and plantain banana, glossy and shining: a bold floral gourmand, at once fruity and leathery.

The official pyramid opens on tuberose and banana, an unexpected creamy, fruity start. The heart pairs castoreum, an animalic note with leathery accents, and creamy sandalwood. The base brings together vanilla, tonka bean, leather and musk, a warm, sensual foundation.

Alone in Babylon is worn in the evening, in spring and summer: a summer evening, a party, a night out. It will suit anyone who loves bold fragrances that leave no one indifferent.

Three gourmand fragrances in our catalogue share some of its materials: Triumph of Bacchus Extrait by Argos brings together tonka bean, sandalwood, musk and vanilla; Mango Skin by Vilhelm Parfumerie finds vanilla again around another tropical fruit; Mmmm... by Juliette Has a Gun pairs tuberose and sandalwood with raspberry.
