Collection — The Eaux de parfum
Six sillages,
without a drop of alcohol.
Six niche Eaux de parfum, unisex and without a single drop of alcohol, composed and made in France, in the Perche region. Carried by a water-based formula, each essence is encapsulated in plant-derived spheres that release slowly with the warmth of the skin: a fragrance on the skin, gentle and long-lasting. Each accord continues in a shower gel, scrub, perfumed oil and perfumed body milk.
The story
We are not looking for one more perfume, but for a fragrance that reflects who we are — in tune with our personality and our state of being in the moment. All six accords are unisex: start with the family.
Citrus, green leaves, tea: the family of clarity.
Sculpted flowers, given texture by wood or fruit.
Labdanum, tonka bean, vanilla: the golden warmth of sunlit undergrowth.
Spices, precious woods and contrasting flowers: a fragrance of self-assertion.
The collection
Open an accord to read its story and its pyramid: the top you smell first, the heart that settles in, the base that lingers.
Florals
A musky floral note, for a feeling that is both sparkling and enveloping.
Orange · Magnolia · Amber
IntensityStrong · enveloping
Inspiration
An orchard in full bloom in the first light of morning. The fruits release juicy notes, the white flowers slowly open. Anything seems possible.
Description
A sunlit tuberose, the velvety freshness of magnolia, the radiance of jasmine. Orange, peach and plum contrast with an amber, musky base, rounded by vanilla.
Intention
I wanted to capture that suspended moment when nature awakens and the soul opens to the possibility of a new beginning.

Orange · Neroli · Orange blossom
IntensityModerate · luminous
Inspiration
An orangery bathed in golden light: air flows between branches laden with citrus fruit, white flowers bloom.
Description
A zest of orange and lemon structured by a green opening. The heart unfolds around a neroli and white flower duo; a measured, unsweetened honeyed accord enriches the orange blossom base.
Intention
I imagined a sun-drenched garden, where the freshness of citrus converses with floral tenderness and the warmth of honey.

Rose · Patchouli · Labdanum

Inspiration
Sun-drenched undergrowth, where golden warmth wraps moss and bark in an almost tactile softness.
Description
A dance of amber and woody notes, wrapped in a hesperidic touch. The accord is encapsulated in plant-derived spheres that release it over the hours: the staying power of an Eau de parfum, with no alcohol on the skin.
Intention
I wanted to explore the most luminous, enveloping side of amber and reveal its sunlit, soothing facet, the one that evokes those suspended moments when nature, warmed by the sun, invites us to find our center again.

A hesperidic and green tea note, for a sense of freshness and serenity.
Orange · Green tea · Powdery
IntensityModerate · fresh
Inspiration
The breath of an awakening, in the clarity of Eden.
Description
At the opening, a radiant grapefruit. Green tea, worked in all its green finesse, converses with a nuanced rose and an airy cotton flower; powdery musk reveals a delicate sillage.
Intention
I wanted freshness to become texture, and lightness, sophistication: to capture the moment when nature, in its simplicity, becomes a source of clarity.

Cumin · Rose · Sandalwood
IntensityStrong · bold
Inspiration
Between East and West, a spice market awakens. The air hums with warm scents; precious wooden chests can be glimpsed.
Description
Cumin and cardamom form the backbone. Rose converses with the spices, peach brings a sensual light; sandalwood, cedar and patchouli give the sillage its structure.
Intention
I wanted to explore the power of contrasts: a fragrance of self-assertion, intense, structured and deeply grounded.

Inspiration
An exceptional garden amid ancient woods. In the soft morning light, roses, peonies and wild violets bloom in silence.
Description
Velvety rose intertwines with peony and the powdery nuance of violet. Patchouli, dry woods and oud wood structure the composition; in the base, a leathery note.
Intention
Far from a romantic rose, I wanted a sculpted, textured rose, deepened by the nobility of oud.

The fragrance ritual · The innovation
The accord is carried by a water-based formula and encapsulated in plant-derived spheres that slowly burst with the warmth of the skin and between the fibers of clothing.
Its opening is soft and close to the skin; the sillage then unfolds, and lingers. Each accord keeps its own intensity, from moderate to strong: it is shown on its card and on its product page.
The step
An alcohol-free Eau de parfum is meant to be sprayed generously.
01 · Prepare
After the bath or shower, ideally over a body care product of the same accord.
02 · Spray
Generously, from one shoulder to the other across the décolleté. The pulse points of the upper body diffuse it together.
03 · Prolong
Fabric prolongs the sillage.
Layering · Body care
Each accord comes as a foaming gel, a scrub, an oil and a body milk. Applied over a body care in the same fragrance, the Eau de parfum gains depth and lasts longer.
Step 01 · Cleanse
A soap-free foam with soy micelles. The first layer of the accord.
Step 02 · Exfoliate
A fine grain, once or twice a week. Smooth skin holds the sillage.
Step 03 · Nourish
A dry oil with a satin finish: a perfumed veil, with no greasy film.
A shea body milk with a creamy texture, more enveloping.
Step 04 · Sign
The large V on nourished skin: the scent lasts noticeably longer.
