Max Richter 01
This perfume was born from the collaboration between Max Richter, a German-British composer blending classical and electronic music, Yulia Mahr, a visual artist and creative partner, and Comme des Garçons Parfums. I
nspired by objects related to Richter's universe: graphite, piano wood, rosin, magnetic tape, they envisioned an intimate olfactory composition. The visual universe is designed by Mahr, and the olfactory translation entrusted to perfumer Guillaume Flavigny. The opening reveals an immediate tension: aldehydes, black pepper, and cumin evoke the roughness of graphite. The heart becomes softer, carried by an earthy vetiver. In the base, patchouli, Atlas cedar, and incense create the woody and magnetic ambiance of a composition studio.
