Tristan Badard
Badard often describes his method as composing like a painter, building fragrances in coloured layers based on how each ingredient resonates and diffuses. He has a particular affinity for opulent white florals such as tuberose, and rich resinous-leathery notes like labdanum, leather and honey, facets that appear in his niche and limited-edition work at Quintessence’s in-house House of Quintessence atelier.
