A burst of citrus and a flurry of both warm and fresh spices carry a rose of apricot-like velvet. In a hurricane of leaves and woods unfurl patchouli, cistus and oakmoss.
Paul Vacher first composed Bourrasque in 1937-1938. Rodrigo Flores-Roux then reinterpreted the fragrance while keeping in mind that it had initially been advertised as “strong, strong, strong”. Inspired by the most emblematic Chypre scents of the 20th century, he infused a level of modernity just as surprising as in its heyday, through his work with spices and wood.

« Having known the original version of Bourrasque, I gladly let myself be seduced by this rework. I wanted to symbolize the strength of an autumn wind that carries all sorts of raw materials in its wake: flowers, spices, fruit, wood, mosses, all while leaving an enticing and fascinating trail. »
