Marc Antoine Barrois Tilia, Sample
Tilia by Marc-Antoine Barrois, crafted by the talented perfumer Quentin Bisch, is a Floral Woody Musk fragrance designed to captivate both women and men. As the scent opens, the bright and uplifting essence of lime blossom mingles with the intoxicating aroma of jasmine sambac, creating an initial impression that is both fresh and enchanting. This floral duo sets the stage for a fragrance that unfolds with elegance and sophistication.
As the fragrance develops, the heart reveals the soft, powdery allure of heliotrope paired with the warm, earthy character of broom. This combination enriches the scent, adding depth and complexity. The heliotrope introduces a creamy sweetness, while the broom imparts a subtle, honeyed warmth that intertwines beautifully with the floral top notes.
In the dry-down, the fragrance transitions into a more grounded composition. The base notes of vetiver, georgywood, and Ambrofix™ provide a rich, woody foundation that balances the earlier floral elements. Vetiver offers a grassy, slightly smoky quality, while georgywood adds a smooth, woody dimension. Ambrofix™ imparts a modern musky touch, rounding off the scent with a lingering, sophisticated finish. Tilia is an exquisite creation that showcases the artistry of both the Marc-Antoine Barrois house and the renowned Quentin Bisch.
