Year: 1985
Place: London
Leather and gin and glistening skin, crimson nights and black box peepholes, a bath of glowing amber, a key on a chain, a glimpse in the saffron haze, silhouette reflections in infinite mirrors, eyes that can’t look away.
All about this fragrance
Vibe check
A glance held across a crowded, red-lit room: Eye Contact suits the moment when conversation gives way to attention. Pepper and saffron bring a sharp initial charge, while leather and dark warmth suggest a presence that becomes more compelling at close range.
How to wear
The leather, oud and amber profile lends itself to cool weather and evening wear. Start with one or two sprays on skin; the bold spice needs little encouragement. In warmer rooms, keep application restrained so the darker warmth remains inviting rather than overwhelming.
Who it’s for
For those drawn to peppery leather, oud and dark amber rather than bright freshness or floral softness. Its appeal lies in the contrast between a sharp, spicy opening and a warm, tactile foundation, with a deliberately bold sensuality.
Release year
2025

Discothèque’s story
Discothèque translates nightlife into fragrance through feelings rather than literal club smells. Rooted between Los Angeles and London, the house treats the dance floor as a meeting place across social boundaries, preserving the anticipation, connection and euphoria of a memorable night.
Eye Contact’s concept
Eye Contact imagines London in 1985, drawing on Taboo Club and The Box for its fictional world of red-lit rooms, leather and mirrored reflections. Its central subject is the unspoken exchange between two people: peppery spice conveys the first jolt of attraction, before the composition becomes more intimate on skin.
Extra info
The label’s “1985, London” is an imaginative setting, not the release date. Gin belongs to the accompanying story rather than the official note pyramid. Angular glass and chrome mirrors reinterpret the disco ball in the bottle design.
