Juliette has a Gun: Gentlewoman
« With Gentlewoman, I wanted to give women a dash of dandy.
A composition conceived like an eau de Cologne, where the main focus lies with the pertinence and the quality of the ingredients. Gentlewoman never fails to impress me.
How could she not? Modern, daring, I envy her freedom, her taste, her look.
But I don’t want to tell you anymore and leave you to discover her complexity and character.
I myself, am already conquered.» Romano Ricci
Just like the Gentlewoman,
this eau de cologne with its feminine edge is stamped with a specific genre.
A masculine fragrance dedicated to women.
The note revolves around the Neroli Essence, the Orange Blossom Absolute, and a Musky woody
base. A regressive fragrance too.
While the Almond Essence takes us back to childhood it remains sufficiently dressed up to be worn with elegance.

FATE : THE NEW FRAGRANCE OF AMOUAGE
“This is the final story in the first cycle of the Amouage narrative.
In Fate all the characters I have created from Jubilation to Honour will meet. They will meet their Svengali. Each character will share his and her secret with the Svengali who will set them free into the world in which their fates await them.
Fate for Woman is a chypre oriental with a rich floral heart intensified by a dark and destructive accord resonating the tumultuous unknown.
Fate for Man is a spicy and woody construction parodying the force and power of the inevitable.”
– Christopher Chong
Fate Woman
In the opening, the spicy accord sets the mysterious mood of the unexpected.
In the heart, we pay tribute to a rich floral with an intensity of frankincense and resin to resonate the beginning of the end.
In the base, frankincense is intensified with resin, oakmoss and leather charging with haunting mysticism of the unknown.
Category: Chypre Oriental
Top Notes: Bergamot, Cinnamon, Chilli, Pepper
Heart Notes: Rose, Narcissus, Jasmine, Frankincense, Labdanum
Base Notes: Vanilla, Frankincense, Benzoin, Castoreum, Patchouli, Oakmoss, Leather

Perfumer: Dorothee Piot
Fate Man
In the top notes, we create a sense of a beginning by combining fresh citrus with the green dimension of absinth reawakened by the tingling sharp ginger.
In the heart, we wanted to create the next level, which is the ending. We use key ingredients of rose and frankincense to express an ending - a finale.
In the base, the theme is the uncertainty of the future as represented in the name Fate. We build upon this woody accord of cedar wood and sandalwood by adding liquorice and Tonka bean, which increase the haunting intensity of uncertainty. Musk and woody resin resonate in the background quietly waiting for the unexpected.

FRAPIN: PARADIS PERDU
Parfums Frapin latest creation marks a break from the brand's scent profile. Paradis Perdu celebrates Frapin estate's heritage with Art nouveau
Background …
1889… Time stood still in the temporary glass palaces of the Paris World Fair. The pavilions, showing their iron lacework undersides, celebrated booming industry and Art nouveau.
It is against this thrilling backdrop that Frapin cognacs were rewarded for their excellence. Pierre Frapin received the gold medal from Gustave Eiffel himself. History goes not tell us what was said between the man of the soil and the man of iron. The estate in Charente, however, bears witness to what was done. Mr Eiffel used his genius to create indestructible store houses for Mr Frapin.
The Perfume…
Created with the vitality of Art nouveau, Paradis Perdu is an ode to the vineyards around the property. The perfumer, Amélie Bourgeois, drew her inspiration from the expanses of land, conjuring effervescence with curved lines, somewhere between gushing and encircling.
A hint of sap is first to be noted, the new Eve in this Garden of Eden. It rises from the soil in a rustling of vetiver roots. Intertwined up the vine shoots, a sign of lasting freshness, the sap changes from crisp green to dark green. Basil, with its insolence as a new shoot, muddles the severe green of the large vine leaves. The bitter green of spinach leaves heralds the quirky elegance of this organic harmony.
As in Art nouveau, Amélie has distilled nature and guided it to abstraction. In line with this joyful art, she has skilfully played with exotic green notes, changing Paradisamide into Paradise.

NEW: OLFACTIVE STUDIO: FLASHBACK
A memory in motion and in action: that is also the magic and the raison d’être of Flash Back.

A base note of vetiver and cedar give it woody sensuality.

MUSC TONKIN
The perfume of the realm of the senses
A powerful, addictive, erotic aura… The scent of heated flesh, solar, feline, subtly leathery. This elixir reinvents in a novel, contemporary style, the most suave note in perfumery, worshipped for millennia: Tonkin musk.
More than a fragrance: an imprint…
To find out more…
The Chinese have prized it since Antiquity for its aphrodisiac virtues. Its smell was considered so heavenly by Islam it was blended into the mortar of some mosques so that they would exhale it in the sun. It was so penetrating that ships loaded with tea would refuse to carry it for fear it would impregnate their cargo… Tonkin musk, produced by a species of Himalayan deer, was one of the most precious ingredients of the perfumers’ palette: it suffused their blends with a sensual aura that fixed and magnified every other essence.
No longer used for ethical reasons, natural musk still haunts perfumers since it has never been perfectly replaced. It is to capture this fascinating ghost that Musc Tonkin reinvents it by blending the most opulent raw materials to conjure its myriad facets. Their names don’t matter: like the mysterious charisma of certain people who draw us into their wake, Musc Tonkin should be experienced rather than described.
Vibrant, facetted, surprising, at once nocturnal and solar, this aphrodisiac potion changes on each skin, the better to enhance it. A lick of salt for the taste of skin. A heady floral whiff to remind us that perfume links our bodies to the erotic spells of nature. A liquorous, mulled-fruit burn contrasting with a light, shimmering veil of powder… Unctuous as honey, melting and waxy as the finest leather, the scent conjures living flesh heated by pleasure but also its mossy ink-black depths.
Musc Tonkin, to rediscover the immemorial tradition of love elixirs.

Atelier Cologne: Rose Anonyme
“She turned the dial until the safe opened, revealing the diamond. She had stolen jewels before, but none compared with this one. She left a single rose and the scent of her perfume in its place for him to find. In a moment she’d be halfway around the world and he would be in pursuit. The chase began again…”
Cologne Absolue concentrated at 18%
A breathtaking seductress caught in a stolen affair between light and dark as Turkish rose sparkles and intrigues beneath notes of spicy ginger and a sultry veil of velvet oud and mystic papyrus.
Top notes
bergamot from Calabria, ginger from China, Turkish rose essence

Turkish rose absolue , incense from Somalia, velvet oud accord
Base notes
patchouli from Indonesia, papyrus from India, benjoin from Laos
Atelier Cologne: Vétiver Fatal
“He was alerted immediately and called on the case, another diamond stolen mysteriously. The moment he opened the dossier, a smile sparked in his deep eyes as he recognized her signature mark. He took one of his passports, burned the file and began the pursuit. This time she wouldn’t get away…”

Frapin: Speakeasy
Speak easy: those were the words whispered to clients in illegal bars during the Prohibition…
And since today tobacco is a more forbidden pleasure than alcohol, it is to this rare olfactive family that Marc?Antoine Corticchiato’s composition belongs. A suave accord of Havana and oriental leather, refreshed by a splash of mojito. Speakeasy conjures the film noir allure of an age when danger lurked under the glamour. A Tropical bar where Hemingway could have bumped into the characters of To Have and Have Not. Misted glasses, club chairs, smuggled Cuban cigars savored by gentlemen bootleggers under wood ceiling fast churning the damp air… Refreshed by a mojito accord (rum, mint and lime), this suave blond tobacco is enhanced with the liqueur like richness of immortelle and the hay/almond facets of liatrix and tonka bean. A smooth oriental leather rubbed with rich amber deepens this tawny palette. As tough as Bogart and as sensuous as Bacall in a black satin sheath.
Juliette Has a Gun: Mad Madame
Mad Madame
OMG, Who the hell is she?
"For this new episode I wanted to pay tribute to a woman who dares. A woman slightly more mature than previous episodes, but by no means better behaved! Mad Madame has this touch of craziness, which she is happily displaying. Endowed with a sense of provocation, she enjoys being looked at and igniting conversations. As Oscar Wilde once said, 'The only thing worse than being talked about is not being talked about'.
So to illustrate this charismatic and enigmatic character, I thought it would be more interesting to show the reaction she generates, rather that the subject itself .... Just look at the bewitched gazes on those young girls faces. I've nothing more to say ..." Romano Ricci
Mad Madame
Get ready, here she comes! And instantly the rumor has it!
Disbelieving eyes start to widen and astonished mouths to gap. She fascinates, entertains, provokes. And no one is left indifferent. While the whispers gather in her wake, so does the sensual trail of an aphrodisiac perfume
The Fragrance
A chypre fragrance revolving around the metallic Rose oxide, the Blackcurrant bud Absolute, and the woody-modern Ambroxan.
Head Note
Rose Oxyde, Ambroxan, Blackcurrant Bud Absolute, Freesia accord.
Heart Note
Peony accord, Patchouli essence, Tuberose Absolute, Sylvester Moss, Hedione hc
Back Note
White Musk, Tolu Balm Absolute, Vanilla Absolute, Castoreum absolute, Animalys absolute

“I interpret what I see and feel into scents,” says Christopher Chong. “All the social and natural chaos and disorder surrounding us today can be translated to a much more intimate level. The interlude moment is a reflection of all the trials and tribulations one overcomes to attain personal satisfaction and achievement.”
