Trudon Mystique Eau de Parfum 100ml

Leather and saffron in the opening is a deliberately difficult way to start a perfume, because both are assertive and neither gives ground.

Mystique holds them apart with aromatic cedarwood, then lets oud and precious woods carry the base. Émilie Bouge wrote it around ritual and smoke, and it wears like something with a purpose rather than a mood.

Quiet intensity rather than projection, which is why the people who wear it wear nothing else.
