A Menagerie of Companions

This collection is not just of perfumes; it is a cast of tiny storytellers.  Each animal-inspired bottle bursts with character, charm, and whimsy.  They are playful yet sophisticated, delicate yet intimate, designed to mirror your inner world and inspire curiosity.  These companions invite you to explore the many moods of your personality, to celebrate the facets of yourself that emerge with each passing day.

Design That Enchants

Inspired by MCM’s iconic leather charms and stuffed animals, each bottle is a small work of art.  Golden accents catch the light like sunbeams on a treasured keepsake, while the playful animal figures spark wonder, nostalgia, and delight.  They are more than decorative objects; they are talismans of mood, miniature portals into imagination, and tangible expressions of individuality and style.

Identity in a Bottle

Fragrance becomes a reflection of oneself. Each spritz is a whispered note to yourself and the world, a small ritual that celebrates who you are and who you wish to become. Whether layered, alternated, or worn alone, these six fragrances offer strength, joy, charm, connection, mystery, and serenity. Fluid, multifaceted, and endlessly expressive, the MCM 2025 collection is a celebration of individuality, imagination, and discovery.

Darling Doxie is a tribute to loyalty, connection, and the timeless relationships that shape our lives.  The nose behind this fragrance is Frank Voelkl.

Power and Mystery

The little but powerful Daring Dragon sparks curiosity and adventure.

Vanilla, Cedarwood, and Sandalwood settle at the base, leaving a trail of mystery and possibility. Daring Dragon is the fragrance of bold exploration, the intoxicating thrill of stepping into the unknown with confidence and delight. The nose behind this fragrance is Sophie Labbé.

Wisdom and Serenity

And finally, Zen Elephant, which embodies calm and mindfulness. Grapefruit, Freesia, and a hint of Seaweed open the fragrance with fresh clarity, while Cardamom, Magnolia, and Truffle form a heart of gentle balance. The base of Cedarwood, Oakmoss, and Ambrox grounds the scent, offering a meditative stillness, a fragrant pause in the rush of life. Elephant encourages reflection, serenity, and inner harmony at every moment. The nose behind this fragrance is Hamid Merati-Kashani
