“Althaïr explores a majestic, subtle and surprisingly fresh vanilla that is elegant, generous and charismatic.” Julien Sprecher, Founder and Artistic Director of Parfums de Marly.
An unexpected, modern ode to a universal ingredient of perfumery: Bourbon vanilla, a direct descendant of the vanilla introduced in France under the reign of Louis XV.
Althaïr is an elixir that is both warm and fresh, gourmand and light, with an unexpected rush of vanilla, citrus, spices, and noble woods. A sequence of ingredients that reveal one another before ultimately becoming one in a dazzling projection on the skin. A scent of elegant hedonism that can seduce both men and women.
The ultimate in soft powdery perfume with facets of iris, bluebells and violets like sweet candy floss, Babylonia begins its persuasion with a quartet of luscious gourmand notes – blackcurrant, pink pepper, davana and bergamot – followed by the heavenly warmth of soft musk, sweet resins, vanilla and praline.
The perfume sings in perfect harmony and could not fail to achieve a sense of romance – positively enchanting.
“Haltane is a fragrance for a gentleman of today, inspired by the gentilhommes of the Chateau de Marly in the 18th century.”
Julien Sprecher, Founder and Artistic Director of Parfums de Marly.
Haltane is an original scent of both radiance and shadow. Its composition features a blend of rare and noble ingredients which revisit the tradition of 18th century French perfume making.
Its dazzling freshness and herbal top notes quickly yield a warm and smooth sense of leather with a symphony of precious woods. Soft and sweet, escorted by saffron, its praline accord is an ultra-contemporary spin on the mythical oudwood.
Agarwood emerges in this veil of contrasts and imprints the skin with luminous refinement for endur-ing comfort. A privilege that is all about sensation.
