I’ve opened this piece with a wander through lilacs as I’ve been wearing Désarmant all day, one of three splendidly architectural and stylish fragrances from a new niche house called La Parfumerie Moderne, founded by Philippe Neirinck who debuted three fragrances at Esxence -The Scent of Excellence in March of 2014 and more recently at Pitti Fragranze. He has worked closely with the enigmatic Marc-Antoine Corticchiato, the Corsican-born nose behind the sultry and imaginative fragrances for Parfum d’Empires.
