A living leather, taut, almost animalic. A scent of raw material and tension.
Leather, incense, rose, birch, smoked wood — dark, vibrant, embodied.
Corpus Equus — "body of the horse" in Latin. Naomi Goodsir doesn't seek metaphor: the title accurately describes what the fragrance does. Composed by Bertrand Duchaufour, one of the most respected perfumers of his generation, creator of animalic and woody compositions of rare density, this woody leather opens without preamble in the most direct and carnal material of the entire collection.
Leather, incense, musk, and patchouli assert themselves right from the opening with remarkable tension and immediacy — not a sweet or polished leather, but a vibrant, almost warm leather, laced with slightly resinous incense and subtly earthy patchouli. At its heart, a dark rose briefly interjects — a dark and slightly powdery floral facet that emerges within the material without truly softening it. And the base returns to leather, amplified by smoke: slightly tarry birch, deep smoked wood, dry cedar, warm amber — an accord of exceptional density and persistence, lingering on the skin long after application.
Corpus Equus is the fragrance for those who wear raw material unapologetically — and turn it into a presence.

A word from Maison Diaphane
Our favorite from the Naomi Goodsir collection. The architecture of Corpus Equus — leather in the top, rose alone in the heart, leather-birch-smoked wood in the base — possesses a coherence and radicality that only Bertrand Duchaufour masters. It's a fragrance that doesn't try to please; it asserts itself. And that's precisely why we love it.

Learn more about Corpus Equus +
Corpus Equus Eau de Parfum by Naomi Goodsir is a unisex woody leather fragrance from the niche perfumery house founded by Australian milliner Naomi Goodsir, based in France. A Maison Diaphane Favorite. Composed by Bertrand Duchaufour and handcrafted near Grasse, it combines leather, incense, musk, and patchouli in the opening, rose in the heart, and leather, birch, smoked wood, cedar, and amber in the base. Available at Maison Diaphane, official retailer. Free delivery from €100 (in France).
Its pyramid combines a direct and animalic leather-incense-patchouli opening, a dark and brief rose heart, and an intense and very persistent leather-birch-smoked wood-cedar-amber base. Unisex woody leather with an intense sillage, for autumn and winter, evenings.
Why is this your favorite?
Because Corpus Equus does something rare: it fully embraces its animalic and leathery register without trying to reassure or soften it. The architecture — leather in the top and base, rose alone in the heart — demonstrates a radicality and coherence that only Bertrand Duchaufour masters. It's a fragrance that doesn't seek to please: it imposes itself. And that's precisely why we love it.
The rose alone in the heart — what does that mean?
In a fragrance so dominated by leather and smoke, the rose in the heart is not there to soften — it is there to contrast. It is a dark, slightly powdery rose that briefly emerges in the composition before the leathery-smoky base takes over completely. A parenthesis, not a resolution.
For what occasion?
Evenings, significant occasions, moments when you want a strong and unforgettable presence. Its intense sillage makes it a signature scent, not a discreet everyday fragrance. To be worn when you want to make an impression — and a memory.
For what season?
Autumn and winter exclusively — its leathery density and smoke flourish in the cold. In summer, its intensity would be difficult to wear. It is a dark season fragrance, for nights that deserve something absolute.
