Pale Fire

Pale Fire is a deconstruction of amber, the first fragrance type to rely on synthetics, but changes this 'fantasy' note into something real- the integration of Spanish wildcrafted labdanum absolute and a rare supercritical extraction of Tahitian vanilla. Like the poem which bears its name, Pale Fire exists between appearance and essence, completeness and incompleteness, real and unreal- it is the smell of the feeling the Portuguese call saudade- the longing that remains after a disappearance.
