Opening with a uniquely fresh honey note, sublimated with Virginia tobacco and overdose of Florence iris, 5+3 is airy and bright.

The scent possesses a surprising depth and shifting olfactive character that expresses the ever-changing emotions experienced when studying Mondrian’s masterpiece. 5+3’s heart is full of delicate floralcy from tuberose, magnolia and rose – representing the nature that inspired the artist.

A structural backdrop of powdery tonka and deep, dark vanilla and birchwood create the depth and form of the fragrance. Expressing stylistic purity and simple complexity, 5+3 is a captivating floral amber.

ABOUT THE ARTWORK

Composition II in Red, Yellow and Blue – Piet Mondrian

At first look simplistic, Composition II in Red, Yellow and Blue is minimalist in appearance, yet invites you to imagine expanses of colour beyond the canvas itself. A favourite artwork of our perfumer, who created 5+3 as an exercise in intriguing simplicity – at once curious and abstract, polarising and unifying.
