Six Scents: Series Three

N°4 – “Ascent”

By Rad Hourani & Christophe Raynaud

Six designers from six different parts of the world have been invited to remember the most definitive experiences of their youth that led to their sense of identity today and to recall some of their most intimate childhood memo- ries involving the sense of smell. Exploring the stories from one through six, innocence begins to fade and rebellion, reality and mis- chief kick in. In addition, a group of contem- porary artists have been invited to interpret the progression from innocence to experience through film. A portion of the proceeds will go to War Child International

PERFUME:

“I was inspired by Rad’s vision of the cycle of life, going from birth to death, from ashes to ashes, as in David Bowie’s song. Origin of life is expressed by a fresh accord, green and watery, like a drop of sperm. Childhood is evoked by baby powder, it’s a musky and powdery scent. Midlife is expressed by a leathery note, comfortable yet strong like a leather jacket. Then the end of life is symbolised by incence, not a morbid, but a liturgic odor, evoking the ambiance of the churches. The results is a contrasting fragrance, luminous yet dark, shiny and mate, like Rad’s fashion.” - Christophe Raynaud
