Founders Cabinet: Chambre Noire — Olfactive Studio (EDP)
Decants available: 2ml • 5ml • 8ml • 10ml
If your taste leans private hotel bar, low light, and a glance that lingers too long—Chambre Noire belongs in your cabinet. It’s a dark plum-leather composition lit by pink pepper sparkle, wrapped in incense smoke and a soft, velvety sweetness that reads more mysterious than gourmand.
What it smells like
Opening: a vibrant, spicy flash of pink pepper
Heart: jasmine, violet, papyrus, incense, and a prune/plum accord
Base: leather, patchouli, sandalwood, vanilla, musk
Think: polished leather + boozy-dried fruit + incense haze, with a sensual warmth that stays close—but noticed.
