Cold Iris
Iris · Pink pepper · Ambroxan
The house signature. Powdery, cold and quietly radiant — an iris that has been left in the freezer overnight.
Maison Argent
Quicksilver Collection · SS 26
A cold-iris eau de parfum in a mercury-silver flacon. Poured once, polished by hand, refilled for life.
01 — The Metal
Argent is a recycled silver-tin alloy, cast in a single pour. It keeps the chill of a mirror — then, within minutes of meeting skin, hands the warmth back to the fragrance inside.
Ag-Sn, melted down from decommissioned electronics and studio offcuts. Ninety-two per cent of every flacon has lived before. It will live again.
Poured at 232 °C into a graphite mould, one flacon at a time. No seams, no joins: a single continuous surface, like a drop that never let go.
Fourteen hours of hand-polishing, until a softbox reads as a sharp-edged rectangle in the metal. If you can see the window, we are done.
02 — The Pyramid
Choose a tier, then a note. The metal listens — its tint, its weight and the way it moves will follow.
0 min0 — 15 min12 h
Top · effervescent, cold, pink-peppered
Madagascan berries, crushed cold. A dry, rosy spark.
03 — The Collection
Each scent is cast in the same mercury-silver flacon. Choose a size; every refill vial is 100 ml and arrives in a paper sleeve.
Iris · Pink pepper · Ambroxan
The house signature. Powdery, cold and quietly radiant — an iris that has been left in the freezer overnight.
Neroli · Green tea · Cold mint
Quicksilver, in a glass of ice water. Neroli sharpened with mint, over a hush of white tea.
Milk musk · Sandalwood · Salt
A skin scent with the lights off. Warm milk, pale sandalwood and one grain of sea salt.
Black tea · Incense · Vetiver
Pewter smoke. Dark, dry and unhurried — the scent of a candle that was blown out an hour ago.
Complimentary shipping over $120 · Discovery set of four 2 ml vials, $28, credited on your first flacon
04 — The Refill Ritual
Progress00%
Draw it straight up. Set it on its side — it is heavier than it looks, and it likes to roll.
Tilt the vial to the neck. Mercury-slow, then all at once. One hundred millilitres, no funnel, no waste.
Press home until it clicks. The flacon is sealed, weighed and quietly yours for another nine refills.
Post the empty back in its paper sleeve. We melt it, recast it, and it returns to someone else as a flacon.
Refill saves 68% CO₂e vs a new flacon*

Illustrative figures
“It smells the way a cold mirror looks. I have not touched another perfume since April.”
“The pour is the best part. Slow, silver, silent. I filmed it, then I felt silly, then I filmed it again.”
“Peau de Lune is my second skin with the lights off. People lean in and ask what it is.”
“Noir Étain is smoke without the party. Only knocked a star off because the flacon is heavy in a tote.”

07 — Questions
Six to eight hours. The iris and musk anchor it; the pepper and bergamot are gone within the first quarter hour. Reapply at the pulse points if you like. It layers rather than stacks.
Yes: a recycled silver-tin alloy shell around a food-grade glass liner, cold-cast in a single piece and polished by hand. The fragrance only ever touches glass.
Order a 100 ml refill vial ($175), lift the cap, pour, seat. Post the empty vial back in the prepaid paper sleeve. Every ninth refill is on us, and every flacon is re-melted after its ninth life.
We do not gender scent. Wear whatever looks right in your mirror.
Complimentary shipping over $120. Unopened returns within 30 days; an opened flacon can be swapped once for another scent. The $28 discovery set is credited against your first flacon.
Never. Argent is vegan and cruelty-free, from the musk to the metal polish.
