Falcon Leather

French for “raw material", Matiere Premiere's fragrances are built around one central natural ingredient, used in its highest dosage.​ Between Paris and Grasse, Aurélien Guichard, Founder and Perfumer of the House, reveals the unique texture and the most beautiful facets of each central ingredient, with contemporary, direct, understandable fragrances.

From Matiere Premiere

INITIAL IDEA: "Create a leathery scent inspired by falconers’ gloves"

MAIN INGREDIENT: Birch Tar (Finland)

CREATIVE APPROACH: Exacerbate the power of the note at the start thanks to Saffron. Unfold and enrich the texture of Birch Tar to evoke both sides of leather: highlight the smooth full-grain side with Ciste Labdanum Andalusia, amplify the soft suede side with Benzoin Absolute Laos.
