Honore Payan

The range is built around woody and warm spicy accords. These elements form the foundation of the house's output, creating a consistent profile across its different releases. This core is frequently joined by powdery and sweet tones, with vanilla often appearing to round out the overall composition.

Patchouli, vanilla, jasmine, and bergamot are materials that recur throughout the catalogue. The presence of patchouli and vanilla reinforces the warm and sweet aspects found in the accords, while jasmine and bergamot add contrasting floral and citrus facets to the mix. This combination of heavy, resinous woods and lighter floral notes defines the character of the house. One of the fragrances that exemplifies this use of materials is Patchouli Antique.
