秋日裡的微風輕拂,金黃的暮色蘊蓄著一股柔緩的氛圍。室內淡淡的木質調香氣,與窗外落葉相互呼應。果實的隱約甜香與濕潤泥土的氣息交織,像是一場感官的和諧共鳴,撩動著心靈深處的悸動。在這樣的季節裡,甚麼樣的氣味才能捕捉這轉瞬即逝的秋意?琥珀與香草的溫暖包覆、杉木與柑橘的輕盈與沉穩,無疑是入秋的最佳伴侶,將季節的詩意封存於每一滴香氛中。

As autumn’s breeze gently whispers through the air, golden twilight casts a soft, languid glow. A subtle woody aroma lingers in the room, echoing the rustle of fallen leaves outside. The faint sweetness of ripe fruits entwines with the earthy scent of pericher, creating a sensory symphony that stirs the soul. But what fragrance can encapsulate the fleeting beauty of this season? The warm embrace of amber and vanilla, paired with the airy yet grounding notes of cedar and citrus, emerges as autumn’s perfect companion, capturing the season’s poetry in every precious drop.

DIPTYQUE Les Essences de Diptyque 系列

味道是一種無形的連結,透過視覺、嗅覺與觸覺,將我們引領至記憶深處。無論是橙花或檀香,都是我們能輕易喚起這秀熟悉的氣味。然而,若是珍珠母貝或是珊瑚的氣味呢?法國高級香氛品牌 DIPTYQUE 在全新 Les Essences de Diptyque淡香精系列中,從大自然至臻精華汲取靈感,捕捉那些無法觸及的珍貴氣息:珊瑚、珍珠母貝、樹皮、睡蓮及沙漠玫瑰,以大自然的詩意之美,譜出氣味的交響曲。

調香師 Alexandra Carlin 創作的「幽影珊瑚淡香精」,將威尼斯瀉湖中的海洋之花─朱紅珊瑚,轉化為一幅礦物花香調的夢幻景象。這款香水以波旁玫瑰精華的古典,與清新的柑橘香調結合,襯托出珊瑚深藏於海底的神秘與璀璨。在海洋礦物的溫暖包覆下,仿佛看見陽光穿透水面,照耀在石花上,守護著海底生物的珊瑚森林,靜謐卻充滿生命力。

調香師 Fabrice Pellegrin 以隱藏在貝殼深處,斑斕的珍珠母貝為靈感,創作出「潮汐月瑩淡香精」。這款辛香琥珀調的香水,彷如海上月光的皎潔,岩薔薇的明媚與粉紅胡椒的辛香質感相融,帶來獨特的礦物清新感與乳香的溫暖,描繪出珍珠母貝色調上的斑斕變化,在靜謐卻光彩奪目的調和下,將視覺轉化為嗅覺,創造出既強烈又微妙的香氣。

最後,「睡蓮粼波淡香精」以莫內的睡蓮畫低語植物世界之美,將光影與感性凝於瓶中。調香師Nathalie Cetto 與 Olivier Pescheux 以紫羅蘭葉與豆蔻的清新,結合馬達加斯加香草的柔和,營造出如波光粼粼水面般的輕盈流動感,呈現睡蓮水光中那抹奢華柔美,卻自然的輕柔綠植之舞。

DIPTYQUE LES ESSENCES DE DIPTYQUE

Scent is an intangible connection that transports us deep down the memory lane, weaving together our senses of sight, smell, and touch. Whether it’s the familiar allure of orange blossom or sandalwood, these scents evoke familiar emotions. But what about the scent of mother-of-pearl or coral? Inspired by nature’s rarest treasures, French luxury fragrance house DIPTYQUE unveils its new Les Essences de Diptyque collection, capturing elusive notes like coral, mother-of-pearl, bark, water lilies, and desert roses, composing a symphony of nature’s poetic beauty in fragrance.

Perfumer Alexandra Carlin’s creation, Corail Oscuro, transforms the Venetian lagoon’s fiery red coral into a dreamlike landscape of mineral floral accord. This fragrance blends the timeless elegance of Bourbon rose absolute with an effervescent citrus, evoking the deep cerulean mystique and glistening coral hidden beneath the waves. With the warm embrace of ocean minerals, conjuring an image of quivering bars of gold piercing through the water, illuminating the coral forest below, serene yet teeming with life.

In Lunamaris, Fabrice Pellegrin draws inspiration from the iridescence hidden within the shells of mother-of-pearl, a spicy ambery note reminiscent of moonlight reflection glistening on the sea. Bright cistus mingles with spicy sophistication of pink peppercorn and ambery rockrose, infusing the fragrance with a unique mineral freshness, softened by the warmth of incense. This blend reflects the glowing iridescence of mother-of-pearl, creating a scent that is both scintillating and delicate, turning visual splendor into a nuanced olfactory experience.

Finally, Lilyphéa celebrates the beauty of the plant world with Claude Monet’s famous Water Lily paintings, encapsulating the interplay of light and sensuality in a bottle. Perfumers Nathalie Cetto and Olivier Pescheux blended violet leaves and fresh notes of cardamom with the softness of sweet vanilla, crafting a fragrance that flows like shimmering light on water. It delineates the luxurious grace of water lilies in motion, twirling in the wind with a natural and ethereal elegance.

JO MALONE 檜木與雪松芳醇香水

深入日本神聖的山林秘境,泥土飽含著微妙的原始氣息,雨後的清新藏匿於落葉間,彷彿整座森林在緩慢地起伏呼吸。法國知名調香師 Anne Flipo 正是捕捉了這份大自然的細微之美,將其化為靈感,創作出以日式森林浴為靈感的木質香調。在靜謐的森林中,蟲鳴鳥叫環繞身側。圍繞在身上的香氛,宛如秋日清晨的霧氣般,讓五感與大地再次連結。

Anne Flipo 巧妙地融合清新草本的馥奇與厚實的木質底蘊,檜木與雪松的珍貴氣息低調而優雅,淡淡的肉桂香與苔蘚草本緩緩滲入,讓人感覺彷佛隨著香氣,就能緩緩步入森林深處的冥想境地。隨著時間流逝,薰衣草的柔和香氣逐漸浮現,與檜木深邃感性的木香交織,丁香的辛香則為整片森林點綴了一絲神秘的溫暖。尾韻則是由輕柔溫潤的廣藿香、雪松與零陵香緩緩圍繞,交織出一場藴藉隽永的森林敘事。

JO MALONE 的品牌好友陳柏霖也分享到,自己非常喜歡被大自然擁抱的感覺。他表示:「我經常將檜木與雪松芳醇香水與鼠尾草與海鹽香水糅香使用,這種沉穩的木質香氣與清新海洋調完美融合,彷彿在穿越過檜木林後,來到海岸邊,感受到迎面而來的海風,瞬間療癒心靈,煩惱隨風而去。」JO MALONE 獨特的糅香方式,不僅賦予香味層次感,更讓每個人都有機會成為自己的調香師,創造出專屬於自己的獨特香氣。

Hinoki & Cedarwood Cologne Intense

Deep within the sacred forests of Japan, the earth hums with a primeval ambience, and the fresh scent of rain lingers among fallen leaves, as if the entire forest breathes in slow, rhythmic waves. French master perfumer, Anne Flipo, captured this minutiae beauty of nature, drawing inspiration from the Japanese ancient ritual of forest bathing to create a woody fragrance. Enveloped in this soft symphony of birds chirping and insects rustling in leaves, the scent wafts like the morning mist, reconnecting the senses with the earth’s quiet pulse.

Anne masterfully blends refreshing herbaceous notes with the richness of woody undertones. The serene yet majestic aromas of hinoki and cedarwood exude a refined elegance, while subtle hints of cinnamon and moss botanicals seep in, guiding wearers on a meditative journey deep into the heart of the forest. As the fragrance unfolds, gentle lavender mingles with the sensual depth of hinoki, while a touch of cloves adds mysterious warmth. The scent lingers with the soft, grounding embrace of patchouli, cedar, and heliotrope, composing an timeless narrative of nature’s grandeur.

Jo Malone’s friend of brand, Bolin Chen, shares his fondness for nature’s embrace: “I often layer Hinoki & Cedarwood Cologne Intense with the Sage and Sea Salt Cologne. The sedated woodiness blends perfectly with the fresh marine notes, making me feel as though I’ve walked through a cypress forest to the shoreline, where the sea breeze instantly soothes the soul and carries away my worries.” Jo Malone London’s signature art of fragrance layering creates a sense of depth, allowing wearers to concoct a scent that is uniquely their own.

AĒSOP 蔚香水

隨著秋日緩緩降臨,生活的細節變得沉靜而零碎,許多記憶也在不經意間隨著時間的脈動重回心頭。AĒSOP調香師巴納貝·菲永,在創作「蔚香水」時,從在地中海度假的記憶中汲取靈感。他回憶道:「在無花果樹下泡一壺茶,那是充滿詩意的瞬間。」每當想到這款香水,思緒總是回到那個騎行鄉間的畫面,空氣中彌漫著果樹的芳香。

蔚香水的配方精心交織出無花果的多重層次—深邃的木質調與清新翠綠的氣息交織,宛如陽光下的柑橘微光。綠茶的基調像是茶道的細膩工序,當茶葉在杯中緩慢舒展,呈載著浪漫回憶的溫潤無花果也相互輝映,彷彿熱氣中浮現的記憶,將我們帶回那片靜謐的果園。清晨微光透著樹梢,微風輕撫綠葉與果實,「蔚香水」如同一段縮影的回憶,簡單卻珍貴、恬淡而幸福。

「蔚香水」充滿著清新與綠意,感官的序幕從溫暖的前調開始,辛香的白松香、充滿氣泡感的佛手柑和苦橙葉,宛如清晨的一縷陽光,為香氣注入輕盈的色彩。接著,綠茶、薰陸香與粉紅胡椒的中調層層展開,猶如乾燥的茶葉隨溫度變化,釋放細膩的香氣。最後,雪松與瑪黛茶和乾草糅合的後調轉為安靜而深沉,帶有一絲煙燻的底蘊,回味悠長。這款香水以佛手柑、無花果與綠茶為主角,溫暖且充滿活力,透過多重感官的體驗,建立自己與香水的個人連結,也勾起了微風與陽光交織的恬靜景象,將記憶深處的靜謐重新帶回感官世界。

Virēre Eau de Parfum

As autumn quietly unfolds, life slips into a fragmented, contemplative rhythm of time. Long tucked away scattered memories gently resurface. Inspired by the nostalgia of his Mediterranean holiday, AĒSOP’s perfumer Barnabé Fillion, crafted Virēre—a fragrance born from recollection. “Brewing tea beneath a fig tree—an instance of pure poetry,” he reminisces. Whenever he thinks of this fragrance, his mind drifts to the memories cycling through the countryside, where the air brims with the delicate scent of fig orchards.

Virēre’s composition is intricately layered with nuances of fig—deep, woody notes intertwined with fresh, verdant undertones, reminiscent of the glow of citrus bathed in sunlight. The green tea base notes mirror the refined process of a tea ceremony, where the leaves slowly unfurl, steeping in warmth. Like a haze of memory, the fragrance conjures the serene image at an orchard at dawn, where soft sunlight filters through tree branches, and gentle breeze caresses the leaves and fruit. Virēre distills these memories into a serene yet precious, quiet and joyous recollection.

Virēre Eau de Parfum opens with a crisp and fresh greenery, as the sensory prelude begins with a warm, spicy top note—white galbanum, effervescent bergamot, and bitter petitgrain, as delicate as the first beams of morning sunlight. These give way to a heart of green tea, mastic, and pink pepper, unfurling like tea leaves releasing their intricate aromas in heat as they steep. The base notes of cedar, green maté, and hay add a smoky depth that creates a quiet yet lingering finale. Anchored by fig, bergamot, and green tea, Virēre balances between warmth and vitality, evoking a sensory experience that rekindles tranquility in the sun-dappled orchards and gentle breeze, drawing nostalgic memories back to our sensations.
