Ever wondered what happens when the world’s most decadent fungus meets the art of perfumery?

French gastronomes call them “black diamonds,” reflecting their scarcity and high-stakes price tag. Now, imagine capturing that rich, sultry aroma in a bottle—perfect for anyone who craves a dark, mysterious edge to their scent collection.
