Chords

Inspiration
Chords tells of the desire to belong, in the London home of British-German composer George Frideric Handel at 25 Brook Street. Handel became so vital to British music that he was called 'more British than the British'. A chord is two or more notes sounding at once, and that is how master perfumer Nathalie Lorson built this scent.

The Signature of Chords
Bergamot opens like a cup of Earl Grey, reinforced by neroli and the green richness of orange flower. Ylang-ylang, a honey accord and blond tobacco make the heart warm, soft and addictive. In the base, Atlas cedarwood, wood leather and cypriol give the traditional airiness of cologne a darker, woody-animalic side.

What our ParfuMaria team thinks of this fragrance
Chords is the Britologne scent we recommend most often, because it wears so easily. The bergamot-tea opening is civilised and British; the honey and tobacco beneath make it warm without weight. It is a cologne you carry through the day, from office to an evening in town. Longevity exceeds what you expect from a cologne. For tobacco lovers who prefer something clear and elegant, Chords is an excellent choice.
