"Le Gant Blanc" is the fifth creation in the Les Extraits Collection, Eight & Bob’s most concentrated and exclusive olfactory expression.

Inspired by the perfumed gloves that emerged in 16th-century Florence and later flourished at the French court of Catherine de’ Medici, Le Gant Blanc evokes an era when fragrance became a symbol of refinement, elegance and distinction.

The fragrance opens with the fresh, vibrant character of violet leaf, pink pepper, coriander and bergamot, creating a sophisticated contrast of green, spicy and luminous facets.

At its heart, rose absolute, black pepper, lily of the valley and incense reveal a more sensual and intriguing dimension, where floral delicacy meets warm, smoky accents.

The composition settles into a rich and enveloping base of patchouli, vanilla, tonka bean and amber woods, leaving a warm, elegant and unforgettable trail.

A tribute to discreet luxury, master craftsmanship and the beauty of a gesture that leaves an unforgettable impression

THE HISTORY

In the 16th century, when perfume was still a secret art and leather a privilege reserved for the nobility, Catherine de’ Medici brought the refinement of Florentine scented gloves to France. Among her entourage traveled René le Florentin, a master perfumer, and with him, a new form of alchemy: the meeting of leather and fragrance.

In a small workshop overlooking the Ponte Vecchio, his disciple Girolamo perfected this technique. His white leather gloves, delicately scented, became coveted objects among the European courts.

They were not a display of ostentation, but a silent signature—the lingering echo of a refined presence.

Among his patrons was Duchess Eleonora Álvarez de Toledo, who kept her gloves in a silver box engraved with the words “Per ricordarmi”—to remember me. It is said that centuries later, when the box was opened, a faint trace of dried flowers and polished leather could still be perceived: the fragrance of time and of a gesture.

Le Gant Blanc pays tribute to those anonymous artisans who transformed matter into emotion.

It is the fragrance of movement, discretion, and the invisible touch that connects the creator with the one who wears the creation.

The fragrance of the perfect gesture.
The luxury of leaving no trace.
