Last Thursday, Jonathan Dufour, creator of the very young perfume house Spiritum revealed his first collection. Over a cocktail reception hosted by chef Frederic Vardon, the guests discovered Numerus, a collection of nine unique fragrances inspired by the ancestral world of numerology. The creations that make up Numerus are the result of Jonathan Dufour’s collaboration with the noses Philippe Paparella and Betrand Duchaufour – who has also created for L’Artisan Parfumeur and Acqua di Parma. Together, the perfumers worked on the three main ingredients of the collection: sage, olibanum and sandalwood. In doing so, they reproduced the olfactive essence of shamanic rituals.
