History and atmosphere of perfume

Duel is a fragrance that evokes an elegant and subtle duel between different contrasting notes, offering a complex and captivating olfactory experience. While walking in the forest, we imagine knights, hundreds of years earlier, galloping between ancient trees. You can still feel the leather of their boots and the moist earthy scents.

Here is the olfactory description of Duel by Annick Goutal

Keynotes : The fragrance opens on a spicy and stimulating pair of pepper, with a touch of Sichuan pepper that adds a slightly exotic and spicy dimension.

Heart notes : In his heart, Duel reveals a refined floral bouquet, dominated by the delicate presence of the iris, an emblematic flower associated with elegance and sweetness. Peony adds a subtle and feminine floral shade, while galbanum brings a green and fresh note, balancing the composition.

Substantive notes : The base of the perfume is characterized by an attractive mixture of leather and vetiver. Leather gives a touch of sophistication and sensuality, while the vetiver brings earthy and woody depth to the fragrance.

 The subtlety of perfume

Between strength and softness, refinement and sensuality, Duel sublimates contrasts and invites us to challenge the ordinary. Overall, Duel is a sophisticated and captivating fragrance that harmoniously combines spicy, floral and woody notes, creating an elegant and timeless atmosphere.
