Ganymede Fragrance Oil

Discover the extraordinary character of Ganymede Fragrance Oil, inspired by the acclaimed Ganymede fragrance from Marc-Antoine Barrois. Created by perfumer Quentin Bisch, Ganymede was launched in 2019 and is designed as a contemporary interpretation of fresh, mineral elegance.

The fragrance opens with a striking combination of Italian mandarin and saffron. Mandarin brings a bright, sparkling citrus quality, while saffron introduces a warm, subtly spicy character. Together, they create an unusual opening that feels fresh, radiant, and immediately distinctive.

At the heart, Chinese osmanthus, immortelle, and violet add layers of floral, fruity, powdery, and slightly salty nuances. Osmanthus contributes a soft apricot-like character, while violet provides a delicate powdery facet. Immortelle adds a warm, subtly spicy dimension that contrasts beautifully with the cooler mineral impression.

As the fragrance develops, mineral accords, suede, Akigalawood, cedar, musk, and patchouli create a refined foundation. The suede accord introduces a smooth leathery texture, while Akigalawood and cedar contribute sophisticated woody depth. Musk and patchouli complete the composition with a soft, earthy finish.
