History
Intime.Extime belongs to the White Collection, launched in 2019 by Pierre Guillaume and housed in a white ceramic bottle. The name plays on two words: the intime, which corresponds to deep reality, to essence; and the extime, that part of intimacy one voluntarily makes public, like an extimate diary.
The perfume presents itself as a skin adornment that would say everything about you. Powdery, floral and amber, it evokes the movement of the pages of a diary, expressed by an accord of iris powder, incense and vanilla. Itauba wood, refreshed with a dash of white tea, infuses its exotic complexity.
The key note is precisely this Itauba wood which, freshly cut, gives off a complex and singular scent. It brings the composition a depth and preciousness tied to the multitude of its exotic wood nuances, and anchors the powdery floral in a woody material.
Intime.Extime thus extends the spirit of the White Collection, conceived as fresh, modern and sensual, adding a powdery, confidential facet.
Olfactory pyramid
Intime.Extime unfolds in three movements, from powdery white tea to Itauba wood.
The thread is the powder: an iris-and-vanilla accord, anchored in an exotic wood.
Olfactory profile
Intime.Extime is a powdery floral rather than an opulent amber. White tea and iris powder give it a refined freshness, incense a light smoke, and vanilla a discreet softness that does not weigh it down.
Its signature is Itauba wood, exotic and complex, which closes the composition on a woody depth. It is a skin scent, intimate and confidential, easy to wear and at ease in any season.
