Silures celebrates the Welsh tribe of Venta Silurum, who lived alongside the Romans in grand settlements with amphitheatres and forums. The Silures were very fierce, warrior-type people, so there’s a leathery background to reflect their strength. They foraged and ate lots of berries, which brings a fruity element to the fragrance. I built the entire scent around osmanthus absolute, which has this beautiful apricot-leathery profile. I also created a Beltane cake accord with nutmeg, cardamom, cloves, vanilla, brandy, and butter to evoke their celebrations and the richness of their culture. This is a sweet but powerful fragrance that captures both the refinement and the fierce spirit of the Silures.
