  • About The Fragrance

    It is a night of pale moonlight, a night toward the end of the 20th century, a night when the old world is ending and the new one is beginning. It is a night when one trembles to boldly lower the sacred cross against the heart, to aid in the passage to fatherhood.

    So, as a crucifix, that night I pick up Hyperion, a novel by Dan Simmons. This is a masterful science fiction saga that celebrates the infinite legend of the French Jesuit priest Pierre Teilhard de Chardin, who was a 20th-century researcher, paleontologist, theologian and philosopher.

    And I read, pacified, until the reflections of the dawn, until the first golden rays of the East. I read the future of man, the celebration of transhumanism and the qualitative leap of humanity enhanced by machine. I have rarely loved a book this much, I have rarely loved a thinker this much.

    I read that night what a man thought he saw in the tombs of time.

    I am a lover of words in the service of materials when they come together to make poetry in the bottom of our bottles; thus, a few years ago, I bring up the work of Pierre Teilhard de Chardin to one of the last living vestiges of the triumphant 20th century, and I ask him: "Then Teilhard de Chardin, precursor of genius?" A look, a silence and for the answer four unexpected words, four words whispered by my father: "Ghost in the Shell."

    This is the act of birth that makes the spirit of perfume. The rest is poetry to live on the skin.

    Pierre Teilhard de Chardin died in 1955, but his spirit continues to travel. This fragrance extends it through an alliance with the Japanese artist Shirow Masamune to transcend the spirit of Earth.

    This perfume silently celebrates the wake of the future and also whispers of a day to come, by providence or chance, when humanity is reunited and organized. A day when all consciousness is summoned by the infosphere to constitute a superior being and pass from the inert to the living. As the molecules assemble to make the living, we will then make a qualitative leap that becomes the starting point and arrival of transhumanism.

    This perfume is the future. It comes to us from the 20th century.

    The Ghost in the Shell, a perfume that speaks of the human phenomenon and its paradox, a perfume to wear on oneself ab libitum, at one's pleasure. A perfume as a propagation toward the other, that makes you the axis and the arrow of evolution; modern, indeed! From the bottom of the matter, rise up.

My Signature Scent

I am a fragrance fanatic and out of all the hundreds of fragrances I have experienced, THIS is my favorite. It’s fresh, clean, maybe floral?, but 100% unique. There is nothing like it and it’s great for day, night or all of the time. This is my second bottle and I get constant compliments when I wear it. Could be unisex but leans towards lighter notes than traditional heavier mens notes.

On average, customers rate the Scent of this item as Intense.

Milky and addictive

I brought this based on the notes. It is such a beautiful and unusual scent. It’s not a floral or strong scent but truly addictive. I am always asked what I am wearing. This Coming from a person that perfumes never last on.

Clean girl must have!

This is a beautiful, clean, soapy futuristic feminine scent. It literally lasts all day long and has a nice scent bubble. I have received numerous compliments with this. The bottle is gorgeous!
