With the N°6 candle, Marc-Antoine Barrois imbues his couture house, located at 6 rue de Budapest in Paris, with the animal scent of cumin and saffron combined with the gourmet scent of plum. Authenticity and a taste for the beautiful materials of couture are expressed here through the notes of cistus labdanum and pepper. In the depths of the foundations, we find the precious accord of sandalwood, leather, incense and styrax that blends perfectly with the sobriety of the candle's black-tinted glass. In the background, amber, white musk and patchouli reflect the elegance of the founder's grandfather who inspired him so much.

nose reviews
Marc-Antoine Barrois draws his universe from couture. This candle has an amber, leathery and smoky scent with all the elegance of a skin scent. Once lit, it transports us to a large house decorated with waxed wood furniture and leather coverings, out of time. It will seduce the great aficionados of woody and leathery agreements!

perfume reviews
Very rich in patchouli and amber, this composition offers solid base notes. The woody and incense notes combine perfectly with spices, such as cumin, pepper and cinnamon, for a decidedly sensual effect. The fruity and milky facet brought by the plum makes all the originality of this creation.

journalist opinion
Fashion designer Marc-Antoine Barrois and perfumer Quentin Bisch wanted to bring together some childhood memories: the smell of a grandfather's patinated desk pad, the woody scents of a warm family home, and the wet earth brought back from a long walk in the forest. A concentrate of comforting scents, this emotionally rich candle combines, in a reassuring harmony, plum, cumin, cistus-labdanum, leather, sandalwood and patchouli. For the first time, the voluptuousness of nature and childhood are brought together in a single fragrance.
