CRYSTAL SAFFRON by Matière Première, extrait de parfum

The story of CRYSTAL SAFFRON Extrait

With Crystal Saffron Extrait, Aurélien Guichard takes the saffron overdose further: he chooses an exceptional Greek Saffron Oil as the heart of the creation and adds, as a guest ingredient, Somalian myrrh — a dense, textured material he describes as a “luminous black”.

The increased concentration intensifies the radiance of saffron while preserving a crystalline elegance; the trail deepens into a spicy, slightly ambery accord, carried by incense and musky facets. The alliance of saffron's warmth and the dark depth of myrrh creates a vibrant, sensual fragrance with a strong personality.

Crystal Saffron Extrait embodies the philosophy of Matiere Premiere: a central material exalted, pared back yet intensified.
