This collection features prominent niche fragrances from prestigious houses. Bois Impérial is a signature creation from Essential Parfums, a French brand focused on sustainability and perfumer recognition. Hermann à mes Côtés is a conceptual scent from Etat Libre d'Orange, an iconoclastic French perfume house founded by Etienne de Swardt. Ganymede is a celebrated collaboration between French couturier Marc-Antoine Barrois and perfumer Quentin Bisch. Lastly, Hwyl is produced by Aesop, a luxury skincare brand founded in Melbourne, Australia, which has become a global leader in botanical and laboratory-generated beauty products.

While the French fragrances (Essential Parfums, Etat Libre d'Orange, and Marc-Antoine Barrois) are proudly manufactured in France to maintain the heritage of high perfumery, Aesop products are primarily manufactured in Australia. Regarding ownership, the first three brands remain largely independent or founder-led niche houses, whereas Aesop underwent a significant corporate transition, being acquired by the French beauty conglomerate L'Oréal in 2023 from Natura &Co.
