ingredients, carnal notes, committed, powerful
and distinctive couplings. Transgressive fragrances
composition with the power to awaken pleasure,
to stir physical attraction.
PSYCHEDELIC LOVE
The signature of this narcotic bomb lies in three essential ingredients: rose, hedione and heliotropin.
Beware of its creamy, powdery and floral facets, wavering between vanilla and almond!
Confronted with this diabolical indulgence, no one is safe from an olfactory obsession that can soon become a real addiction!
Main accord: bergamot, myrrh, rose, vanilla, patchouli.
Evening in Esperanto
This resolutely masculine extract is dedicated to dandyish urban night owls who were just waiting for their signature perfume to
come along. A fragrance so insidery, finding likeminded spirits who wear it becomes almost a game, a knowing nod among members of the same elite club.
Grapefruit, jasmine, musk
Taking on an olfactory family this well known is no mean feat. It’s a testament to Vanina’s originality and creativity that this Ambra is very “Jeroboam”, in other words modern, daring and sensual.
Bergamot, patchouli, musk
JUS INTERDIT
Woody, spicy, oriental
Sometimes too much isn't enough. In matters of sensuality, excess can never be exaggerated. In the great Oriental tradition, Jus Interdit plays the sorcerer and toys with the limits of decency, daring to defy propriety by invoking generous proportions of oud, patchouli, cedar and benzoin. A sumptuous mukhallat dedicated to 21st Century princes and princesses, overtly solar, immensely opulent, infinitely addictive.
Hyrax, patchouli, bemzoin
Woody
These Sombres Dessins have replaced a ‘g’ with an ‘s’, abandoning Machiavellian and slightly worrying dark designs to instead give free reign to draw on the consummate art of conquest. A dark and shadowy seducer, this perfume plays on emotions and is always three moves ahead on the chessboard of feelings. Hot and urbane, spicy and sensual, he kindles the fire that is under the ice. When finesse is coupled with unfailing instinct, resistance is futile.
INCIDENT DIPLOMATIQUE
Woody, aromatic
We brush by it, we risk it, without ever thinking about the consequences… Incident Diplomatique clearly possesses its share of superb provocation – bold, owned, and entirely inevitable when desire exudes from our every pore. As unexpected as it is audacious, the fragrance refuses convention and knowingly parades itself. Just as we might give into a staggering impulse too strong to resist, it declares its urges, teasing tension to the breaking point…
Vetiver, mandarine, patchouli
L ART DE LA GUERRE
Fern, aromatic
The end justifies the means. For women and men, the spirit of conquest sometimes leads us down unexpected paths. To win the most worthy of all battles – the game of seduction –, there need to be strategies, sharp tactics and the determined desire, always, to triumph. On a playing field that only men used to enjoy, L’Art de la Guerre shakes up the rules, mixing the nostalgic freshness of fern with the spicy and smoky notes of eternity.
Rhubarb, violet leaf, oakmoss
LES YEUX SONT FAITS
Leather, aromatic, woody
No half measures. This powerful juice exalts the confident virility of those who play life heads or tails, who bet red, odd numbers and high, who are just as comfortable at an electric boxing match as in the subtle atmosphere of a casino. With discreet aromas of gin and old Cuban rum, it conjures up an elegant and reassuring masculinity with a bit of rogue charm, like movie stars from the ’50s and ’60s. They never hesitated to defend their or their lady’s honour with their fists.
Angelica, rum, cistus
PRIVATE LABEL
Oriental, woody
This ideal and contemporary oriental fragrance’s trail is as elegant as it is powerful. Both leathery and smoky, it is a highly recognisable signature scent that is exclusively for strong personalities, men and women, confident of who they are in all circumstances. A restricted circle of people who are passionate about life, who don’t need recognition from others to exist and who stand by their choices with unshakeable self-assurance.
Papyrus, sandalwood, vetiver
White and black, good and bad, wisdom and madness, sun and night… Ever since the beginning of time, the fig tree has revealed its magical, luminous and magnetic powers. Yet where, among its astonishing green freshness and its solar sensuality, lies the truth? Without a doubt, it is in the contentment that comes when thinking of nothing, letting ourselves slip little by little into absolute serenity, savouring the present moment exactly under the sun. The wisdom of this Tree of Enlightenment guides each of us to the discovery of our true desires.
Green notes, fig, fig tree
AMBRE PREMIER
Oriental
Beware of first impressions… A sweet whisper brings to mind cotton candy – simple innocence, and yet Ambre Premier hides its real intentions and lives up to its name. Grandiose and out to conquer, it tattoos skin with a voluptuous and indelible mark that leaves nothing to chance and even less to weakness. Night time is its preferred domain, passionate nights that are profound and sensual, where the heat of its lingering wake collides with the first light of dawn, as if to better defy the day.
Spices, rose, amber
PSYCHEDELIQUE
Woody, oriental
Peace and love forever… This ‘revival’ perfume pays homage to the ’70s, the decade that transformed patchouli into the legendary scent of the counterculture. At all the festivals, from Wight to Woodstock, patchouli’s woody and mysterious richness sang the backup vocals for the rock mindset of a new generation of rebellious youth. Today, it has made its comeback, more hippie chic than ever and the boho-glam idol par excellence. It is a classic in its own right, with all of its audacity intact. Retro-nostalgia has never been so modern.
Citrus fruits, patchouli,vanilla
In the Middle East, a promise made between two people is accompanied by the strictest honor code.
Frédéric Malle celebrates this principle with a promise of his own, whose beating heart is made of two precious varieties of rose: rose essence from Bulgaria and rose absolute from Turkey are lifted by apple, pink pepper and clove, and bound to a sensuous base of patchouli, cypriol and labdanum; an accord as unbreakable, and invisible, as a vow.
