Inspiration: A summer evening in Cartagena

A dinner for two, in summer, under the stars. Conversations come to an end. The tablecloth is stained and crumpled. Coffee, rum, and chocolates are served. A calm, warm breeze, a gourmand dance of aromas.

"I wanted the Cartagena night to become a perfume, to forever remember that magical evening under the stars. A tribute to Colombia and its scents." — Ludovic Bonneton

Perfumer: Clément Marx

“The challenge was enormous. We were talking about recreating a defining moment in Ludovic's life: his first dinner with his wife.”

Essence of Moroccan iris

One of the rarest ingredients in perfumery, it takes 7 years to extract. The roots are left in the ground for 3 years, then dried for 4 years before they can be used. Powdery, earthy, woody.

YOUR FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

YOUR FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

How do you manage to offer more affordable niche fragrances?

The answer is simple: less margin and products made with local suppliers. Everything is in the ingredients, the creation and the bottle! Local manufacturing allows us to minimize transportation costs while fully valuing French know-how. We thus set up a virtuous circuit between the perfumer and the friends of the House.

Do your perfumes last long on the skin?

Yes, we have chosen to offer all our creations in Eau de Parfum, which is more concentrated than Eau de Toilette. When talking about the lastingness of a perfume, we must also take into account the skin's pH level. A perfume will last in a different way from one person to another.

To know more about the different concentrations, read our perfume guide.

Do your perfumes contain synthetic ingredients?

Our fragrances have been developed to contain between 82% and 99% ingredients of natural origin. They have been carefully selected to meet the strictest health and safety standards. Our perfumers always look for the best natural ingredients, as long as these raw materials are non-allergenic and the extraction of their essence respects our planet and is possible.

Our perfumes are therefore sustainable. If you want to know more about our clean fragrances, discover our commitments.

What is a top note, a heart note, a base note?

Perfumes are designed according to an olfactory pyramid:

- Top notes: These are the first scents you smell when you spray a perfume. They are often quite fresh and evaporate quite quickly on your skin (a few minutes).

- Heart notes: They appear as the head evaporates. They will stay with you for a few hours.

- The base notes: This is the scent that you smell at the end of the day and that is absorbed by your clothes. It includes less volatile raw materials such as woods. Want to know more? Find our guide to know everything about the different types of notes.

What is the best way to apply perfume?

The fragrance lasts longer on the pulse points of your body. These can be the neck, the hollow behind the ear, the wrists. Some people prefer a few sprays on clothing.

Do your perfumes contain alcohol?

Yes, our perfumes contain alcohol, water and fragrance ingredients. Dye-free, preservative-free.
