ATELIER 14

Limited Edition Parfum

A hissing, starched and metallic perfume that captures the chalk, threads, antique fabric shears, cut, stitch and pressing of quality tweed, wool twill and cotton.

Amongst this masculine bouquet of sensations there are clever little nods to an haute couture workshop, hints of subtle seamstress perfumes, embroidery, lace, satin, organza and the luxurious nap of velvet.

There is a definite gentlemanly character to Atelier 14, but as with all things, androgyny in scent, that Dietrich in a tuxedo spirit, makes it intriguing to wear. It is also a love letter to lavender, grown-up lavender, once an ever-present dandy in nearly all classic fougère fragrances. When used with elan and know-how it can smell so aromatic and sensual, evoking fragrant purple bracts and whorls in the Provençal sun or lavandin, another deeply aromatic genus that has higher terpene levels, smelling more camphoraceous and metallic.

In Atelier 14, lavender is seared with mineral notes, soapy green sage and bergamot. The stony, flinted top note provides an overall sense of pressed cloth as it persists into the base of clean wool, musks and the milky haze of cedarwood.

The bruised subterfuge of iris rhizome slowly diffuses through Atelier 14, creating a beautiful tension between the floral elements and the abstractions of wool, hot iron and minerality that opens the perfume.
