Thematic Territory

Tuberose washed by sea spray. The memory of white flowers growing near a Vietnamese coast — not the heavy, narcotic tuberose of classical perfumery but something lighter, wind-blown, almost translucent.

Era & Context

Modern

Inspired by co-founder Yves Coueslant's childhood in Do Son, Vietnam. Challenged the assumption that tuberose must be heavy and indolic by placing it in an airy, aquatic context. Proved that white florals could be worn casually without becoming overwhelming.
