introducing Fragrances
“How do you feel when you walk in a garden? How can you translate a certain feeling, a certain emotion?” are questions Dries has been exploring in his collections for decades. Previously woven into the subconscious of the designer’s vision, now scent - and more importantly, how it makes us feel - is front and centre in this collection of fragrances.
ECLECTIC & UNEXPECTED
A walk in Dries’ garden in Antwerp and immersion in his world sparked the inspiration of the 10 leading international perfumers he invited to co-create. Each nose was given the complete freedom to interpret their own creative vision of the brand’s unexpected olfactive universe. The result? An eclectic collection of contradictory-yet-harmonious, rule breaking, genderless fragrances that yet still pay homage to traditional perfumery gestures with bottles inspired by apothecary vials.

IMPOSSIBLE COMBINATIONS
The house design codes of counterpoint and contrast are vividly reflected in the fragrance bottles and lipstick vials creating a striking visual statement through the playful use of juxtaposed materials, patterns and textures. Each bottle, an object of beauty itself, is a translation of the fragrance’s duality. Discover amazing and unlikely combinations of materials with many industry firsts that celebrate craftsmanship and industrial innovations that provoke sensorial surprise and delight. Every gesture, from the opening of a perfume bottle to the twisting of a lipstick, inspires a magical journey into Dries’ world: expect the unexpected.
