THE INSPIRATION |
A jewel-like fragrance that's as admired as it is felt, inspired by the formula books and olfactory creations of François Spoturno. The extract showcases floral and powdery notes.

“The fragrance opens with a myriad of notes : rose blossoms and lemon zest, bergamot, orange blossom and mandarin. Ambergris is joined by lavender flowers, ylang-ylang and jasmine. Rose blossoms, jasmine, orange blossom, lingering ambergris and sandalwood enter. Vetiver announces the immensely rich base notes : tonka bean, myrrh and vanilla. A study that I found fascinating.”

A journey through time and the opportunity to step into the mind of a perfume genius. Even though all the ingredients of the formula still exist, I wanted this formula to be interpreted in the spirit of the original creator with poetic license, capturing an opportunity to benefit from the progress of science.

Animal materials have been replaced by recent molecules and the extraction techniques for certain ingredients have made it possible to optimize the olfactory rendering. It was necessary to review the formula, to shake it up with respect, to give this masterpiece of perfumery a certain modernity.
