Ganymede Extrait by Marc-Antoine Barrois is an intense perfume from 2023, building on the success of the original Ganymede version while offering a deeper, darker interpretation of this iconic fragrance. The composition is once again created by renowned perfumer Quentin Bisch, who this time explores new dimensions of cosmic inspiration and transforms them into an olfactory form full of contrasts. The top notes open with incense, myrrh and juicy mandarin orange, whose interplay creates a warm yet refreshing introduction.

At its heart emerges distinctive immortelle, whose dry, slightly salty and spicy character is the signature of Ganymede Extrait. This ingredient brings nostalgia and depth, as well as a futuristic mood that feels as though it comes from another galaxy. The overall impression of the fragrance is complex, timeless and almost dreamlike — perfectly connecting earthiness with an ethereal character.

The base is composed of two innovative molecules: Akigalawood, which adds a woody, subtly spicy undertone with a hint of patchouli, and Safraleine, which brings a saffron accord with piquant and lightly leathery nuances. Ganymede Extrait is a sophisticated, modern reinterpretation of oriental-spicy fragrances, ideal for those seeking something exceptional and unconventional that leaves a powerful impression and resonates with the wearer's personality.
