Banana smoothies, tropical heat, gentle smoke. The first man.
AUTUMN COLLECTION
Perdrisât’s Autumn collection is an olfactory portrait of a big shiny city full of even bigger characters. Each fragrance in this melodramatic collection is vibrant, theatrical and striking. Starfucker is the promising young starlet who has just managed to break into the mainstream, thanks to the the big-wig producer, Daddy, who has just set his sights on new-girl-ingenue Coquette. When Starfucker finds out, she throws a drink in Daddy’s face, Crocodile Tears streaming from her beautiful eyes. Hush Money makes the whole drama go away. It reads as one big soap opera. Or a modern Greek tragedy? Persephone, Zeus, Adonis and Aphrodite?

HOW IT WEARS
The first spritz of Daddy is like taking a sip of a banana smoothie – sweet, creamy and tropical. Jasmine and cardamom then combine to create a green, spicy, floral heart, before the dry down gets a little more debaucherous. Balsamic clove and sweet cinnamon together flavour warm, resinous, smoky tobacco, making for a fragrance that lasts long enough to withstand the heat… but it might have caused the temperature to rise in the first place.
LORE LOVES
While Callum made this fragrance as an ode to his father, who smoked clove cigarettes for years, he wants everyone to bring their own stories to the table when it comes to Daddy. For us, it transports us to Cuba, where tropical fruits thrive and cigars are puffed on in the heat of the evening. There, Daddy reclines with his cigar and his glass of rum, feet up on the table, deep in contemplation. Even leaders get to have a vice. Make no mistake, he can be sweet when he chooses to be, but there’s a deeper, richer, smokier side to him that makes him irresistable.
