Laine de Verre, launched in 2014, captures the sharp, metallic bite of glass wool with a frosty opening of mint, lemon and dihydromyrcenol. The heart balances this coolness with floral softness—rose, lily of the valley, hedione and aldehydes—while the base settles into a subtle, warm blend of white musks, Iso E Super and Evernyl. Its juxtaposition of icy freshness and velvety cashmere‑like warmth makes it a distinctive, niche perfume that blurs the line between masculine coolness and feminine softness.
