Papillon Artisan Perfumes Salome is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2015. Salome opens with Bergamot and Bitter Orange, settles into a heart of Orange Blossom, Rose, Jasmine, and Carnation, and dries down to a base of Patchouli, Birch, Oakmoss, and Cumin. Papillon Artisan Perfumes's Salome carries an Acquired verdict, a leather-led wear.

Salome is a divisive beast, a love-it-or-hate-it animalic chypre that demands attention. It's a modern classic for those brave enough to wear something truly carnal and vintage-inspired.

About

A complex opening of citrus and indolic white florals soon gives way to a full-bodied, leathery heart, rich with hyraceum and a whisper of tobacco. The base settles into a dark, earthy blend of castoreum, moss, cumin, and styrax, creating a sensuous and unapologetically animalic warmth that lingers with a hint of vanilla.
