Argos - Fall of Phaeton

Fall of Phaeton is warm and smouldering, bright bergamot, ginger and pink pepper plunging into labdanum, lavender and agarwood, then a soft leather-and-vanilla base of musk and tonka.

The Story

Named for the myth of the sun-chariot's fiery fall, Argos builds a spicy, ambery-leathery fragrance with enormous projection, a dramatic, golden warmth that lives up to its name.

The Nose

Composed by Christian Petrovich, founder of Argos, also behind Triumph of Bacchus, Adonis Awakens and Sacred Flame.

Fragrance Character

Citrus, ginger and pink pepper give a spicy-bright opening; labdanum, lavender and agarwood form a resinous, slightly smoky heart; and leather, musk, tonka and vanilla close it warm and plush.

Best Worn

Autumn, winter and spring, casual or evening, a warm, spicy-ambery scent with big projection.

Why the Fall of Phaeton Decant

A dramatic, long-projecting amber-leather, a decant is the smart way to test its reach before a full bottle.
