L'Artisan Parfumeur

A salted vanilla created around a woody accord of immortelle flower, reminiscent of the softness of trade winds.

Perfume is an invitation to a dream, a poem of possibilities. For the master perfumer, exquisite raw botanicals not only suggest the place where they are grown, but also the feeling that place evokes. Especially the feeling of longing for that place when you’re far away. Perfumer Aliénor Massenet was leafing through an atlas when she suddenly visualised sailing off the fabled island of Madagascar. The trade winds swelling with sensual hints of the land’s astonishing bounty. The heat of the sun amplifying the fantasy.

"The images started to take shape. I could smell the aroma of a vanilla pod, subtly bathed in bergamot, everlasting, benzoin and tolu balm, and gently caressed by a salty sea breeze with a dash of iodine. The whole story was there for the taking….”

Couleur Vanille. Where will it take you?

An ingrained memory of the sunset atop the earth walls of Taroudant; the warm light intensifies the colours of the raw land and the air freshens. An Eau imbued with light, delicate and pure.
