Inspired by the scent of a perfectly ripe cantaloupe on a sunlit summer afternoon, Counterplay is designed to disrupt the mundane and seize the momentum. The fragrance unfolds with a fruity top note that evokes a sense of joy. At its heart, a floral bouquet of honeyed osmanthus and creamy ylang-ylang add a layer of warmth to the juicy top note. The dry-down of patchouli and sandalwood maintain a dynamic balance and add a sophisticated dimension to the final composition. Counterplay Decanter Extrait de Parfum embodies unparalleled craftsmanship and timeless elegance. The set features a glass applicator, four reusable vials, a handcrafted ceramic tray, a precision dropper, and a durable Zamak travel case–thoughtfully designed to elevate your fragrance experience and stand as a prized collector’s item.

She views fragrance as an intimate exchange–one that connects deeply with the soul and lives on through the memories of those who wear it. Her work is as intricate as lace, weaving layers and textures into beautifully cohesive compositions that celebrate both craftsmanship and playfulness. “The inspiration for Counterplay mostly came from the juicy melon itself. I was intrigued by the contrast between its familiar sunny playfulness, universal appeal and the sensual layers that could be added to create something more dimensional and elevated – like the layered moves that intensify and raise the stakes of a simple chess match.” - Christelle Laprade, Perfumer THE SCENT: Floral Woody Fruity TOP NOTES: Melon, Guava, Banana MIDDLE NOTES: Osmanthus, Ylang-Ylang, Orange Blossom BASE NOTES: Sandalwood, Patchouli, Pink Pepper BRAND STORY In life and love we are all participants in an infinite, cosmic game.
