les dieux aux bains

The bath of the gods is the theme of les dieux aux bains. The house imagines Aphrodite and Adonis bathing at a clear waterfall in Cyprus, bringing the coolness of water into contact with the warmth of skin.

Pierre-Constantin Guéros also drew on the feeling of summer in a Mediterranean scrubland full of herbs. Flowerpool supplies a watery facet alongside mandarin and juniper berries. Rosemary, eucalyptus and a water lily accord continue that aromatic, aquatic character in the heart.

Patchouli and vetiver give depth to a base containing a generous amount of Ambroxan. Its warmth sits beside the bright, waterfall-like freshness, creating the contrast Guéros sought. Herbs and water remain central to the impression, supported by a softer, warmer trail.
