Trudon - Mortel Noir - Limited Edition
With Mortel Noir, Trudon presents an intensely spicy fragrance with a mystical aura - and the creative expression of an artist moving between light and darkness.
The fragrance
In Mortel Noir, perfumer Yann Vasnier blends three very distinctive fragrance notes: the top note is ruled by the power of black pepper from Madagascar. In the heart of the perfume, mysterious clouds of smoke rise up: Somali frankincense, accompanied by accents of benzoin and myrrh. Meanwhile, the base reveals the sensual attraction of pure cistus...
The bottle
The noble flacon is dressed "completely in black". The mystical, dark robe of the fragrance bottle is only contrasted in one place: the perfume name, which is emblazoned in luminous golden letters on the matt black bottle.
The packaging
A drawing by artist Bastien Coulon adorns the outside of the black packaging box. The golden, shimmering illustration depicts an artist as an earthly, creative figure falling into the abyss.
The artist: Bastien Coulon
Bastien Coulon is said to have spent more time at school drawing his teachers than listening to them. Apparently it paid off: the Paris-based artist graduated from the Penninghen School of Art Direction and Interior Architecture, acquiring in-depth knowledge of photography, calligraphy and graphic design - and ultimately becoming an expert in image direction and graphic design.
He lives out his passion for drawing and painting with a variety of techniques such as acrylic, ink, pastel, watercolor and gold leaf on cardboard or wood; his unique illustrations have themes such as nymphs, wild animals, death, fertility and eternal renewal.
