Bespoke Archival Perfume No2020 was created for the world’s most discerning connoisseurs as a fine example of the HANLON® Bespoke genre. Indulge in a priceless original by AUSTRALIA’S 1ST PERFUMER® that is today carefully stored in cold reserve in private archives throughout the world. These coveted Aromatic Bespoke Archival Collections™ improve with age in both complexity and botanical nuances. Sublime. The ageing period of the principle ingredients in CHRISTOPHER HANLON® Bespoke Perfumery varies from 10 to 20 years, depending on the botanicals through which the aromatic oil is derived. There is no general expiry date to any CHRISTOPHER HANLON® Bespoke Perfume – with time many develop finer sensorial nuances.
No2020 is a strong woody Oriental/Outback fusion. It leaves a seductive smokiness on the skin thanks to Oud Absolute, Saffron Absolute, Tobacco Leaf and Wildcrafted Hemp Extract. Sour Mandarin peel brings an energetic element of aromatic harmony – a discord. This eccentric masterpiece is undeniably exotic and distinctive. A collector’s piece. An artisanal scent featuring Peppered Woods, Oud and iconic Hanlon® Amber. Carefully hand blended by Christopher with Australian Rose, Cinnamon and Basil to reveal the smoky base of Sandalwood and Cedar. Guaiacwood rounds out this oriental-woody before the dry down: hints of musky Ambrette Seed and French Labdanum. It is enchanting and thrilling. Fermented Lime Essence with Bush Potato creates a secondary backstory. The complex lingering finale is a richly textured mélange embedded with bruised Lavender, Tulip, Carnation Flowers, Waratah and (more) Oud. Unapologetically masculine. Raw.
TRADE SECRET AROMATIC FRAGRANCES ARE DEEPLY EMBEDDED IN THE HOUSE OF HANLON'S AUSTRALIAN HERITAGE. CHRISTOPHER HANLON® RETURNS TO HIS ROOTS SOME 145 YEARS AFTER ITS AUSTRALIAN BLOSSOMING.
