Perfume: Sidonie Lancesseur

A body mist with refreshing essential oils of mandarin, rosemary and petitgrain. Marie Jeanne created a fairly novel format of a very gentle, pleasant mist which lends a boost of citrus freshness to sooth and delight the senses and mind.

An iconoclastic perfume built around the aromatic intensity of oregano, an unexpected raw material that conjures sun-scorched leather. The opening salvo of this extrait is sharp and fresh: lime, cardamom and rosemary. As the oregano emerges, arid and fierce, it’s offset by creamy Australian sandalwood and smoky vetiver, adding tension and depth. The trail then turns darker, denser, with Indonesian patchouli, cistus labdanum and oud wood.

Perfumer: Céline Perdriel

It is the energy of myth and the elegance of the garden that inspire a refined and vigorous essence.

Bergamot and juniper berries become full-bodied on a carpet of incense, fading into the persistent fascination of oriental wood.

The presence of a marble Hercules in the garden of the perfumer’s house, triumph of courage and immortality, elevates to myth the creations of Agatho and the Giardinodiercole becomes a perfume.

The green, relaxing scents of the Tuscan countryside blend with the liveliness of exotic spices. Cypress and Cinnamon, Bay and Pepper, Tomato and Cardamom leaves all dance together to create a rich, fresh, unique fragrance.

Perfumer: Fanny Bal

The transporting scent of gin at a coastal golden hour, a glittering seashore and soft focus horizon. Minimalist fresh fragrant juniper is dosed with olibanum to revitalising effect. While the sparkling spicy tones of pink pepper and mandarin are clean and fresh.

Parfum 1 is where Fugazzi began, inspired by founder Bram Niessink’s trip to Egypt and the discovery of ancient perfume oils. Parfum 1 is a bold blend of bright and dark fruits, made mysterious by patchouli and cedarwood. The fresh top notes of citrus and blackcurrant are insinuating, gracefully riding a woody wave of sandalwood and musk. The effect is leathery, with a faint kiss of apple pie.

A juicy, decadent take on tropical fruits, flowers and woods. Inspired by a modernist garden in the old city of Mêrida, Yucatán. The balmy air fills with the heady scent of champaca orchids, ripe guava, fresh ginger, jasmine sambac, Mexican vanilla and mahogany. A spritz of paradise.

In Japan, yuzu is used like lemons, adding freshness and acidity to dishes. This zippy citrus fragrance expresses everything about yuzu, from the astringency of its peel to the sweet and sour taste of the pulp. An accord of bergamot and orange bolsters the yuzu, while thyme adds herbal intrigue.
