Redoubt Extrait de Parfum
Redoubt is a fragrance as enigmatic and primal as the wilderness landscapes of Matthew Barney’s cinematic vision. Inspired by the film's meditation on myth, ritual, and transformation, this scent is a journey through untamed forests and celestial encounters—a blend of raw, elemental forces and radiant, mystical beauty. With notes of sacred resins, towering conifers, and luminous florals, it captures the tension between the natural and the sublime, the earthly and the transcendent.
The fragrance opens with the bracing clarity of Siberian pine and Douglas fir, their sharp, evergreen freshness cutting through the senses like cold mountain air. Lemon adds a bright, shimmering facet, like sunlight refracting through frost-laden branches, while lavender absolute lends a calming herbal sweetness, grounding the wildness of the opening with a touch of serenity.
At its heart, hojari frankincense rises like smoke from an ancient ritual, sacred and otherworldly. Its resinous intensity is softened by the floral opulence of ylang-ylang absolute, whose golden petals unfurl like a warm breath amidst the cold expanse. Black hemlock introduces a dark, mysterious note—earthy, woody, and shadowed, evoking the dense, ancient forests where primal energies stir.
The base is a foundation of profound depth and complexity. Golden ambergris shimmers with an ethereal, oceanic warmth, a whisper of eternity carried on the wind. Mysore sandalwood lends a creamy, sacred richness, balancing the composition with meditative warmth. Patchouli weaves through the base, earthy and grounding, while the lingering sweetness of resinous labdanum anchors the scent in a sense of timeless ritual.
Redoubt is a fragrance of wild majesty and sacred reverence, inviting the wearer to traverse a landscape where myth and nature converge. It is both fierce and luminous, grounded yet transcendent—a scent that captures the essence of an untamed world shaped by ritual, endurance, and transformation.
