MARC ANTOINE BARROIS PARIS GANYMEDE EDP 100ML FOR UNISEX

Product Information

Ganymede is a contemporary masterpiece and a breakout scent in modern niche perfumery, launched in 2019.1 Created by Master Perfumer Quentin Bisch (also known for Essential Parfums Bois Impérial), it is a sophisticated and abstract composition inspired by the atmosphere of Jupiter's moon Ganymede—a planet that is rocky, arid, and yet contains large, frozen oceans.2This fragrance is a study in contrasts: airy and mineral yet intensely woody and leathery, presenting a clean, luminous, and futuristic signature.3???? The Olfactory Profile: Mineral Leather, Sparkling Citrus, and ImmortelleGanymede is renowned for its unique and difficult-to-categorize profile, often described as a "mineral leather" or "fresh, clean woody-spicy."4Note CategoryKey IngredientsDescriptionTop Notes (The Celestial Flash)Mandarin, SaffronA brilliant, sparkling, and vibrant opening. The Mandarin provides a crisp, luminous citrus burst, immediately tempered by the dry, slightly leathery warmth of Saffron, creating a sensation that is both fresh and spicy.Heart Notes (The Soft Leather)Violet, Osmanthus, Suede AccordThe heart softens the initial shock with a refined, soft texture. Violet offers a powdery, ethereal transparency, while Osmanthus (with its subtle apricot-suede facets) blends with a gentle Suede Accord. This creates a leather note that is not smoky or dark, but smooth, angelic, and infinitely supple.Base Notes (The Mineral Core)Immortelle, Akigalawood, Mineral NotesThe magnetic base is where its unique, otherworldly character shines. Immortelle (Everlasting Flower) contributes a double-sided scent: sometimes spicy and hay-like, but primarily conveying a salty, mineral, and almost metallic warmth. This is paired with Akigalawood (a sophisticated woody-peppery note) to create the famous "polished stone" or "freshly lacquered wood" sensation.
