A bold, unapologetically animalic amber perfume built around six-year aged castoreum — shadow, spice, and primal elegance in a single bottle.
Castor Éternel is a leathery amber perfume built around a 60% aged castoreum tincture, rose otto, and labdanum. It opens with a spiced herbaceous accord of frankincense, saffron, clary sage, pink pepper, cinnamon bark, and davana, revealing a heart of rose otto, jasmine absolute, heliotrope, and violet leaf absolute, before settling into a dark, smooth base of castoreum tincture, labdanum, benzoin, orris butter, vanilla bean tincture, and vintage musk ketone.
Handcrafted in Canada by perfumer Matthew Meleg, Castor Éternel is made in small batches centered around an extraordinary castoreum tincture aged for six years — one of the most rare and complex animalic materials in perfumery. Each bottle is blended, aged, and finished with the care of an artisan perfume house.

ALL 50ML MELEG PERFUMES ARE SECURED IN A WOODEN BOX
THIS WOODEN BOX REPRESENTS AN APPLE BIN
I managed my families "Meleg's Orchard," in a small south Ontario town until I was 25. The orchard started with Sam Meleg, a Slovak from the Provence of Vojvodina, former Kingdom of Serbia of the Austro Hungarian Empire. My work ethic, self deprecating humour and stubborn nature is reflective of my Slovak, peasant roots.
Here my cousins are laying crops into the "apple bin." My wooden perfume box is meant to represent apple bins. Be they rose, vetiver or jasmine farmers. Be they from India, Mexico, Canada or Iran - Meleg Perfumes celebrates farmers and artisans of all nations.
