Make your next move with a brand that seduces the mind, overtakes the senses, and places the power of destiny at your fingertips.

Gardez is a call to action. It is the rallying cry to protect what is most precious. Gardez reveals the willing sacrifices we make to secure our love, our freedoms, our future. Gardez highlights the effect of unity, drawing expertise from every available angle, finding the advantage in a strong defense. A dichotomy of delicacy and intensity, Gardez demonstrates that the strong can be vulnerable, and beauty can be bold and fearless. Gardez dexterously blends opening notes of sharp pepper and spice, with the redolent and heady notes of jasmine, orris, and juicy fruits, its range on full display, before establishing itself with a base of leathers and woods, revealing the tenderness and strength at its core.

Inspiration:
“Gardez is an olfactive depiction of the contrast of black and white in chess—two sides playing against each other, gracefully pulled together by the checkered board. This is translated olfactively through the balance of sharp spices against soft florals, and juicy fruits against leathered woods.” — Emilie Coppermann, Perfumer
