CREATIVE PERFUMERY

KNOW-HOW

CREATIVE PERFUMERY

For nearly two centuries, our passion has driven the creation of unique perfumes preserving a heritage that values the work of artisans, all based in France.

Evoking an intangible emotion, perfume appeals to our imagination, yet it requires a unique know-how combining specific talents.

It's a multi-step process of precision work that we take pleasure in sharing with you through our creations, but also within our declarations.

THE PARTITION

THE PARTITION

It can take several years to create the perfect fragrance. The perfumer fuses creativity and expertise, mastering the palette of 1200 ingredients that make up a fragrance and their interactions.

Like a musician exploring a score, the perfumer creates several proposals, playing with notes, chords and harmony until the desired result is achieved.

Only 10 master perfumers worldwide, and 250 fine perfumers, master this art.

THE REALIZATION

THE REALIZATION

Once the olfactive pyramid is established, comprising top, heart and base notes, the equally important technical part begins.

The pure concentrate is created from natural ingredients such as Rose, Jasmine or Vetiver, or synthetic ingredients such as Musk.

The juice imagined by the perfumer is then reproduced and arranged down to the smallest detail, according to a secret recipe to guarantee the perfume's full expression and longevity over time.

THE PREPARATION

THE PREPARATION

Like wine, the precious liquid then macerates for some time to develop its aromas, passing through a glazing phase that freezes the maturation process at the time recommended by the perfumer.

It is then dissolved in alcohol, i.e. diluted in calculated proportions, to become either an Extrait de Parfum (the most concentrated version of a fragrance), an Eau de Parfum, an Eau de Toilette or an Eau de Cologne (the lightest).

THE PRODUCTION

THE PRODUCTION

The final stage is bottling. This is the moment that combines the human touch with the machine precision.

It is the machine that injects the fragrance into each bottle in a delicate, mechanical dance, placing the spray and its magnetic cap, affixing the label imagined as a sweet bill, before finally placing the fruit of our labor in its box.

Our packaging are made from paper sourced from sustainable resources guaranteed by the Forest Stewardship Council.
