A Cologne Elixir inspired by the Flower Market at Covent Garden which has been immortalised by George Bernard Shaw’s Pygmalion.
Created by perfumer Bruno Jovanovic, Fanfare is a melodic fantasy with a touch of impertinence exuding the spirit of contemporary British aesthetic.
It opens with a beguiling watery floral and citrus accord, which slowly becomes darker as the structure evolves and becomes more daring with the vermouth accord. Finally, the noble woods bring this dark depth to the structure of the fragrance.
Until the day when God deigns to reveal the future to man, all human wisdom will be in these two words: Wait and hope!
The Count of Monte Cristo, literary masterpiece, sums up in itself the French spirit, where love, ambition, betrayal, and friendship, confront pain, pain and of course revenge… Everyone knows this vengeful epic, but its moral is much less known and partly more enigmatic… Our hero declaring in conclusion: “All human wisdom can be summed up in these two words: Wait and hope”.
Maison Frapin thus pays homage to this incarnation of elegance, strength, intelligence and mystery that is Edmond Dantes. Through a very original walnut and vetiver accord, it olfactorily interprets this expectation marked by Taoism and this Christian hope. The freshness of the vetiver being resolutely turned towards the future while the telluric wisdom, is it, carried by the tutelary figure of the black walnut. A dandy fragrance, imbued with philosophy and mystery.
Inspired by the famed Gladiators of Ancient Rome, courageous warriors who dominated and entertained in the Colosseum, Gladiator Oud opens with a powerful and thrilling accord of salty, elemental ambergris. Cardamom combines with the cool of Egyptian geranium for an impression of steel and strength. Hay absolute, Haitian vetiver and cumin seed capture the sun warmed earth of the gladiatorial arena. Oud oil and cedarwood bring nobility and elegance to the battle, with the gold and glory of victory elicited through accords of intense saffron and honey.
The Trilogy of Skin Waters pays homage to the noblest animal notes. After the power of Peau de Bête and the gentleness of Belle Bête,
this latest opus invites us to follow a man through his quest for nature.
A man who has become wild through his withdrawal from the urban world, his journey to the center of the scents of nature, his immersion in the forest make him a green adventurer, a Human Beast in love with chestnut trees.

Shackled in a cage of dark woods, the Citrus fight with a newfound strength, their light shining brighter as delicate notes of Elemi and a heavenly touch of Hojari Frankincense burst open.
Even as the smoke rises and crashes in waves of burnt Cade, spicy Guaiacwood and incandescent Vetiver, the Citrus bouquet carries its brilliance proud, undefeated, and undimmed.

Uncompromising, bold, filled with enigmatic charm.
Based on master perfumer Maurice Roucel’s personal cologne, Uncut Gem is an unapologetically manly scent, diamond-hard and absolutely fresh. Clear, spicy top notes of ginger, bergamot, mandarin, angelica root and nutmeg lead you to the sensual fire within: a leathery accord, vetiver, frankincense, generous amounts of amber, and a musk that vibrates with the skin. This is a scent that plays with the tired codes of masculinity while extracting their telluric force to create something beautiful and irresistible.
Maurice Roucel started his career as a chemist at Chanel’s Fragrance Laboratory in 1973. A self-taught perfumer who describes himself as “an explorer wandering amidst formulas”, his style is that of a sensuous aesthete and his signature is generous composition, in which he retains only what is essential.
