Amidst the mysterious swirls of ABÎME, the fragrance rediscovers its sacred origins. Etymologically, per fumum, ‘through smoke’, evokes the offerings burned to honour the gods or purify the soul. Inspired by this ancient symbolism, ABÎME explores the very essence of fragrance, an olfactory journey towards introspection.

Palo santo, literally ‘sacred wood’, and incense, used to purify and elevate the spirit, imbue this creation with a mystical aura. These notes evoke millennia-old fumigation practices and anchor ABÎME in a tradition where fragrance unites matter and soul.

Its name, ‘Abîme’, embodies the duality of vertigo and elevation: dense and misty, luminous and meditative.

ABÎME is a tribute to forgotten rites, an invitation to plunge into the invisible to find the light.
