Dòmm

Dòmm takes the furniture and drawers in Milan Cathedral’s sacristy as its inspiration. Wood, marble and sculpture surround a space where priests prepare for sacred rites. The extrait de parfum connects quieter patchouli and resin textures with flowers and chocolate.

Patchouli, styrax and musk form the subject; jasmine and a chocolate note the counter-subject; bergamot, Virginia cedarwood and black pepper the tail. Earthier patchouli and warmer resin meet softer chocolate and flowers, with wood, pepper and citrus adding definition.

It suggests sweetness that also retains drier expressions of earth and wood. The cylindrical 100mL glass bottle carries a finely decorated black-and-gold label beneath a large gold-coloured hand cap. Fingers, a ring and the textured back of the hand give the bottle its sculptural appearance.
