Cristóbal (2025) Balenciaga for women and men

The fragrance features Patchouli, Oud and Oakmoss. Inspired by the House's founder, Cristóbal is enigmatic and understated, yet radiates gravitas, evoking the duality of M. Balenciaga. It is a tribute to the founder's name, the most treasured name of the House, realized through one of the most precious ingredients in perfumery, oud oil. It layers the preciousness of real Assafi oud essence with a sensual double-thread weaving of glowing patchouli and oak moss. This distinctly original take on an oud is described as overpowering but cocooning, much like the garments created by its namesake.
