In the heart of Provence time stands still – perfumed dreams and creative impulses hold sway. The protection offered by this sanctuary has always been a necessity to be able to materialise our clients’ longings.
At the heart of the atelier, the spectacular perfumery organ houses a maze of a thousand scents. Pyramids of jewel-toned flasks contain myriad refined petals and crystallised resins transfigured into essential oils and natural absolutes. Sheltered from fad and fashion, this enchanted place safeguards a know-how steeped in the traditions of Parfums Henry Jacques and enriched by the art of the great perfume composers.
A unique language, the expression of ideals and dreams yet to be known …
Great perfumery derives from a meeting of memory and the senses, an alchemy of colours, textures and ideas. These endless combination are mixed and balanced until a unison is reached, until buried emotions are unearthed.
A perfume should express something very personal – a feeling, a character – rather than a generic idea. The perfumer, an artisan of shades, does not merely seek to make an impact but strives to compose a testimony to human emotion.
Velvety rose; intoxicating tuberose; sunny lavender; sumptuous jasmine; soft, sensual, heady musk; subtle, hot, marine ambergris… This is but a glimpse of the palette of essences making up the enchanted universe of fragrance.
