Tilia is about to be released on April 1st. Marc-Antoine Barrois worked with his longstanding partner and nose Quentin Bisch to create the upcoming fragrance.
Tilia is Latin for linden. Linden blossom is instantly recognizable in this new perfume. However, in Tilia the note is treated in an innovative way. Instead of being yellow and sweet, like in many other linden-centric scents, Tilia linden feels futuristic. It is constructed from clean white florals and sensual wine-red rose with a dash of dark honey.
Tilia and Ganymede, despite having the same authors, are very different scents. Ganymede is abstract, unique and energetically dynamic. Tilia feels calmer, has a slower pace and references a real-world tree, albeit in a sci-fi way. While Tilia is beautiful, it won't replace Ganymede as the brand's top seller..
