Marc-Antoine Barrois Encelade Eau de Parfum

Marc-Antoine Barrois Encelade Eau de Parfum is a smoky green leather fragrance for men and women drawn to bold, plant-forward compositions with real presence. Launched in 2022 and composed by Quentin Bisch, it opens with an unexpectedly crisp rhubarb -- acidic, fruity, almost vibrating with sap -- before plunging into a dense leathery heart streaked with vetiver and Atlas cedar.

Sandalwood and tonka bean follow with a milky, almond-hay warmth that tames the wildness without flattening it. Named for one of Saturn's geyser-rich moons, the fragrance trades on contrast: volcanic and addictive, primal yet refined, with a trail that announces itself without ever crossing into loud.

Product Features:

• Pairs an acidic rhubarb top note with a smoky green leather heart -- an unexpected combination that gives Encelade its signature paradox of freshness and dark intensity in a single wear.
• Carved around Atlas cedar and vetiver, with their dense, earthy verticality forming the backbone of the composition and lending it a vintage-leather character softened by milky sandalwood.
• Tonka bean introduces almond, hay and tobacco facets in the dry-down, adding a sensual, addictive warmth that keeps the wear feeling rich without ever becoming sweet or gourmand.
• Composed at 80% alcohol concentration with no reformulation since its May 2022 launch, in keeping with the Maison's transparency around its 100% French manufacturing.
• Suited to cooler weather and evening wear, where the smoky leather and woody base unfold most fully, and worn unisex by anyone wanting a green leather with real presence.

How to Use:

Spray once or twice onto pulse points -- wrists, the base of the neck, behind the ears -- holding the bottle roughly six inches from the skin. Avoid rubbing the wrists together. Given the strength of the composition, start with a lighter application and build up as you learn how the leather develops on your skin chemistry.
