CONCEPT
Augustin Lemiere began with a question that felt like a spark: what if nature evolved somewhere else? Neo Eden is his first perfume – and a bold leap into the surreal. Together we imagined a garden beyond logic, where color melts, flowers mutate, and everything pulses with otherworldly life. With fresh instinct and fearless use of molecules, Augustin shaped something that feels both digital and emotional. Neo Eden is not just a scent – it is a world in motion.

THOUGHTS
Neo Eden was a very challenging fragrance for me, as my impression changed each time I wore it. At first, I struggled to understand its character and found it difficult to appreciate. However, with each wear and every time I revisited it on paper, I discovered something new, which made the fragrance increasingly intriguing.
The opening reveals a fruity accord of frozen peach and rhubarb. The peach truly feels chilled, almost icy, creating a distinctive and unusual introduction. On my skin, however, the magnolia was not particularly noticeable.
The most challenging part for me came after the top notes settled. On paper, a beautiful floral fragrance gradually emerges. Yet on my skin, which tends to run warm, a somewhat artificial, plastic-like nuance appears. When worn in hot weather, particularly in a climate like Bangkok, this synthetic impression becomes more noticeable. For those who find such nuances uncomfortable, Neo Eden may be a difficult fragrance to wear.
However, if this scent develops exactly as envisioned by perfumer Augustin Lemiere, then perhaps this unusual, slightly artificial quality represents the very idea of a garden beyond logic — the world of Neo Eden itself.
Neo Eden is a complex and thought-provoking fragrance, one that reveals new facets with each wear and offers a uniquely intriguing experience.
JAPANESE SUMMARY
Neo Edenは、纏うたびに印象が変わる、捉えどころの難しい香水です。凍った桃とルバーブのフルーティーなトップから始まり、ムエットでは美しいフローラルへと変化します。しかし、体温の高い肌や暑い環境では、人工的なプラスチックのようなニュアンスが現れることがあり、好みが分かれる可能性があります。この独特な香りは、「論理を超えた庭」というコンセプトを表現しているとも感じられる、複雑で興味深いフレグランスです。
