Created in 2016 by perfumer Quentin Bisch, B683 is the first perfume from Maison Marc-Antoine Barrois. Blending spicy notes of black pepper, chili, and saffron with delicate leather enhanced by violet leaf, the scent of this fragrance evolves towards woody notes of sandalwood and patchouli. This elegant and refined signature remains a great and beautiful classic, revisited by two talented young designers.

From Marc-Antoine Barrois
This fragrance, which takes its name from both the planet of The Little Prince (Asteroid B-612) and Marc-Antoine Barrois’ date of birth, is all about sprezzatura – the art of nonchalance that marks the effortless elegance of the true dandy … Because the heady smell of leather composed by Quentin Bisch during his first collaboration with the designer doesnt wear pretense. Softly grained with spices – cold black pepper, warm chili, and nutmeg colored with saffron, refreshed with violet leaf – B683 evokes a gorgeous modern leather scent. It’s the kind of leather you’d put on like a three-piece suit with an impeccable fit that you treasure or a perfect attach case. Everything about it is just right; it follows movements without ever getting in the way, asserting itself without imposing, in the breadth of a subtle scent trail. B683, a contemporary classic.
