ABOUT THE FRAGRANCE:
VANILLE FATALE PERFUME IS A BEGUILING TEMPEST THAT TAKES OVER LIKE A RUSH OF BLOOD TO THE HEAD, OPENING WITH THE STIRRING SPICE OF SAFFRON AND CORIANDER WRAPPED IN SMOKY MYRRH.

The beautiful, 60 carat pink diamond Noorolain Tiara has inspired this elegant rose fragrance.
Its signature note, the Taif Rose is especially prized in perfumery for its rarity. The rose itself has 30 petals and only grows around
the city of Taif. It takes around 40,000 flowers to produce one 10g bottle of this rose oil, since only the petals are used.
This sensuous and rich oriental rose opens with a fruity and fragrant bolt of cardamom, bergamot, orange, pine and ginger and melts into a sensual floral heart of rose, jasmine and cognac.
The guaic and tonka make the base slightly sweet and resinous blended with fragrant woods and light incense. This is a charming and versatile oriental rose.
INSPIRATION
Summanus was the Roman god of Nocturnal Thunder, the Monarch of Night. This scent celebrates Jupiter’s oft forgotten dark twin with its electric lightening bolt of cardamon and black pepper and its moody base.
The mandarin from Italy brings a colorful freshness to the bergamot to give life to a luminous and floral citrus breath. Vibrating in unison in a halo of warm light, Aqua Vitae Cologne forte is a caressing eau de parfum with a trail full of sun and sensual musks enriched by Indian sandalwood.
Bergamot from Calabria
Known for its fruity taste in Earl Gray tea, Citrus Bergamia is widely used in perfumery because its top notes signify a sparkling freshness, a kind of “smile” of the perfume. Its essence is obtained by cold expression of the zest of the fruits. Southern Italy is specialized in the cultivation of this citrus fruit which is used in the composition of cologne and in a number of feminine and masculine creations where its fresh, floral and aromatic facets stretch to the heart.
AROMATIC, CITRUSY
Cubia is an apotropaic symbol of good luck, warding of evil and protecting the boat, bringing sailors luck and prosperity.
The fragrance opens with a citrus bouquet, where echoes of Sorrento Lemon and Calabrian Bergamot are embraced by Brazilian Orange. This bubbly head rests on the sweet smell of Romagna peaches counterpointed by the pungent scent of blackcurrant. This sweet and opulent composition is founded on precious and very rare woods. Renowned Atlas Cedar, from North Africa, is embraced by the seductive power of Indonesian Patchouli and Indian Sandalwood. The fragrance Cubia will envelop you in an aura of sweet protection, just like the painted eyes protect the vessels of our Sea.
A second skin with the feminine softness of À la rose. A nourishing and moisturizing body cream with extracts of shea butter combining the delicate radiance of rose from Damascus and the carnal wake of rose from Grasse.

FLORAL
Frapin honours Laskarina’s memory with a perfume of character. After all, she is a truly multi-faceted muse: part wife, mother, businesswoman and adventurer. She was unfettered, fearless, and her own woman – all qualities shared by the great heroines of history and the early feminists. More than just a perfume, Laskarina is a tribute to Womankind.
Amelie Bourgeois rose to the challenge of finding the notes for such a strong-willed perfume. She built a floral, spicy jus, gentle yet feisty, reflecting the paradox of Laskarina. You could say it embodies the iron fist in a velvet glove. Starting off on fresh, sweet notes, it ends on unyielding accords of pepper and amber.
Top notes: Italian bergamot, grapefruit, pink peppercorn, pear sorbet
Middle notes: Tunisian orange blossom, Bulgarian rose
Base notes: frankincense, black pepper, iris, Ambroxan Ambrocenide
