‘In this modern ambery, spicy fragrance, made of unexpected associations, the aldehydes highlight the warmth of Osmanthus from China, upcycled Cinnamon from Sri Lanka and Black Tea – CO₂ extracted to obtain a pitch as close as possible to its natural note. The idea was to play with very deep and intense matter, of travelling without moving, using the faculty of our senses to exceed the ordinary, taking us elsewhere. Jil Sander Black Tea has a smoky, black leather tonality.
Clear-cut. The first Jil Sander fragrance collection fuses botany and technology in six minimalist, unisex formulas in which the olfactory marks of aldehydes cut across key natural ingredients, giving every fragrance unique shapes and volumes. The leading idea was to change perspective and recalibrate traditional proportions, creating radical compositions that use only the essential: the fragrance, infused with 3 key natural ingredients, the synthetic molecules of aldehydes, alcohol from upcycled carbon emissions*, and water. Reaching the highest degree of olfactory clarity and expression.’ – Jil Sander
