Stéphane Humbert Lucas 777 · Eau de Parfum (EDP) · 2014

≈ $530 · 50ml · approx. retail

Considered the diamond of the collection, O Hira is a monumental amber built on a superb pyrogenic styrax and layered with leather and woody facets over a core of tonka bean, torrefied vanilla, and musk. Stéphane Humbert Lucas spent two years pursuing the most precious raw materials to render the primitive, noble scent of fossilized amber.
