About This Perfume
Think cool ocean air, peppery woods, smooth incense: that is Les Liquides Imaginaires Abyssis. It opens with calypsone®, black pepper and white pepper CO2, moves into ambrofix, sandalwood and cedarwood and settles on Sylkolide™, cosmone and styrax. It reads unisex.
It is best in spring, summer and fall and is a daytime scent. A good pick for the office. Released in 2022.
In the community's experience it lasts roughly a working morning or afternoon, and projects to about arm's length.
Is it right for you?
- Best for: anyone after something fresh and aquatic for the office.
- Sample first if: you are unsure about strong aquatic notes; this one divides opinion.

Les Liquides Imaginaires Blanche Bête (EDP, 2021) reads as creamy milk pudding warmed by cocoa and vanilla, drying down to tonka bean, vanilla and cocoa.

For Les Liquides Imaginaires Bloody Wood (2013), expect smoky red wine cherries, rose and violets over oak.
