Henri Frapin likes to relax on these springtime Sundays in the garden opposite the property, built in 1702 and located above the production site. He contemplates this region made up of woodland, rivers and pastures where he was born and which is in his blood. He considers the manna provided by this nectar that the family has produced since 1889. His favourite time is when his son joins him at around 11am when the sun’s rays warm up this headland of forest above Segonzac.

The signature perfumes are inspired by the Côte d’Azur, and the beauty of the raw materials harvested in its center, Grasse. They all have a strong olfactive signature, while remaining breezy and infused with light. They bloom on skin, are long lasting and memorable. They’re all part luminosity, part mystery.
‘Beau de Jour’ Eau de Parfum is for “the groomed gentleman who considers every detail”, much like the founder himself, who never forgets to wear fragrance. Part of the brand’s Private Collection, this clean and refreshing scent opens with African Rosemary and Mint before mellowing through Patchouli, Amber and a hint of warm Musk.

Re-orchestrated by Sidonie Lancesseur, its warm-hued palette runs from golden pineapple to candied orange, ambery raisins, purple prunes and russet hazelnuts to the roasted duskiness of cocoa and coffee. Facets of vanilla and smoky guaiac wood evoke an outbreak of vine branches in the fireplace…

LEATHERY
Today tobacco is a more forbidden pleasure than alcohol. It is to this rare olfactive family that Marc-Antoine Corticchiato’s composition belongs.
Refreshed by a mojito accord (rum, mint and lime), this suave blond tobacco is enhanced with the liqueur-like richness of immortelle and the hay/almond facets of liatrix and tonka bean.A smooth oriental leather rubbed with rich amber deepens this tawny palette.

Top: Rum extract, Indian Davana, Sweet italian orange, Fizzy lime from Brazil
Heart: Cold russian mint, Egyptian geranium
Base: Oriental leather accord: Ciste, Labdanum, Styrax
Tobacco accord: Tobacco, Liatrix, Everlasting flower, Tonka bean, White musks
Inspiration: The pearl, a precious gemstone valued for its beauty and ancestral to the culture of Doha is given an exquisitely modern interpretation.
Fragrance story: Like the ideal pearl, Pearl Oud is round and smooth–a cocktail of spicy saffron and black pepper glow with iridescent powdery iris at the opening. The pearls’ opulent nature is realized at the heart, with a lush bouquet of jasmine, Turkish rose and ylang ylang. Pearl Oud reveals a rare drydown, with an intense animalic blend of Indian oud, precious patchouli and castoreum.
Key notes: Iris, Jasmine, Ylang Ylang

More KILIAN craftsmanship details
The perfume Pearl Oud is part of the KILIAN Smokes family. Figurative or abstract, Kilian’s smokes capture the timeless scent of Bakhoor, incense, tobacco.
A lot of attention is taken in each bottle of KILIAN refillable perfume, to make them real precious objects. The perfume bottles of the smokes family are adorned with a distinctive black lacquer and their bottle has been meticulously engraved on each side, with the representation of the Achilles shield. Like Kilian Hennessy says: In perfumery, it is as much about seduction as it is about protection. A silver metal plate on which the name of the perfume is engraved by hand adds an extra touch of sophistication.
These details bring to the KILIAN creation a guarantee of luxury, that should not be ephemeral, but should last a lifetime. That’s why the bottle of this cellar perfume can be refilled indefinitely.
