About
Contemplating the El Djem amphitheatre in Tunisia, Jean-Paul Guerlain had a vision that inspired this fragrance for men that is full of character, and certainly not for the faint of heart! A quest for absolutes in the mode of contemporary elegance. It begins with a flight of bergamot and orange tree notes, then quickly transitions to an exhilarating fantasia composed of spices, Indian wood and carnation. Spicy and daring, it anticipates a voluptuous pause inhabited by patchouli, birch, leather and autumnal notes.
