Bertrand Duchaufour's creative process follows two fundamental principals; firstly, he believes that balance is achieved when opposites attract, like yin and yang. Secondly, nothing is lost nor is created, everything is transformed. He distorts and deconstructs nature, playing with contrasts such as vegetal and animalic notes. Bertrand is a veteran perfumer for L'Artisan. Traversée du Bosphore, a mysterious Eau de Parfum, capturing the scent of a languorous day exploring the narrow streets and influences of Istanbul. L’Artisan Parfumeur invites you to cross the majestic Bosphorus River and explore this most mystical of cities, caught between East and West. Notes of iris, leather and Turkish delight. 100ml
