A design inspired by the world of high perfumery.

The XO decanter captivates with its minimalist elegance, featuring a long and slender silhouette accented by a beechwood stopper, reminiscent of the cooperage heritage of the house.

Drawing inspiration from the world of perfumery, these bottles pay homage to the meticulous and skilled craftsmanship of our cellar master. Much like perfumers, he ensures the consistency and balance of the harmonious relationship between the eaux-de-vie and the selected woods.
