Orb_ital - Eau de Parfum
OrbitoneĀ®
It softens other materials, appeases tensions between musk, woody and floral notes, and makes perfume blendsĀ light as cloudsā¦ Since the early 1990s, āthe transparent woody-ambery odor of Iso E Super has shaped and definedĀ modern perfumery like hardly any other material,ā writes the fragrance chemist Philip Kraft. With OrbitoneĀ®,Ā Takasago offers a sophisticated, surprisingly textured version of this indispensable molecule.
The scent: Wood in orbit
Orbits are the result of a perfect balance between momentum and gravity. And in orb_ital, Patricia Choux hasĀ brilliantly used the balancing qualities of her star molecule to create a new fragrant planetary system. Violet andĀ rhubarb; pepper, cedar and roast coffee; tobacco, smoke, and a whiff of struck matchā¦ Of the many facets spinningĀ around OrbitoneĀ®Ā the perfumer has picked pepper as the main force of attraction.Ā The spiceās cool-hot burn actsĀ from top to base notes in orb_ital, exerting its pull on a creamy sandalwood compound, Takasagoās HindinolĀ®,Ā anchored by sacred olibanum.

ABOUT NOMENCLATURE
You may not know their names, but youāve smelled them. In fact, you probably smell of them right now. Without them, your fragrance simply wouldnāt exist.
While natural essences bask in the limelight, synthetics are the clandestine infiltrators that spark off fragrant revolutions. It was the discovery of coumarin that yielded the first modern perfume, FougĆØre Royale, in 1881. Aldehydes lent their abstract sheen to Chanel NĀ°5. Ethyl-vanillin enhanced Shalimarās plush cleavage. HedioneĀ® breathed its radiance into Eau Sauvage. And no contemporary scent could do without synthetic musk or the ubiquitous Iso E Super.
Whether they imitate nature, tease out its innermost secrets or veer off into botanically impossible smells, synthetics are the true building blocks of perfumery. Elegant solutions discovered by scientists, wafting from labs onto skin and into your nose.
Nomenclature celebrates design in perfume chemistry by showcasing todayās most inspiring, exclusive moleculesāso exclusive that some, known as ācaptives,ā are zealously guarded by fragrance companies.
Through a series of sheer and streamlined compositions, Nomenclature explores their complex facets and their potential for protagonism. Demonstrating that these man-made hybrids of poetry and science have a beauty all their own. The beauty of modernity.
