In this new fragrance, patchouli expresses its lightest, most airy facets. Perfumer Jérôme Epinette chose an extremely pure fraction of its essence: “For Patchouli Blanc, I wanted to recreate the feeling of soft, enveloping cashmere,” he explains. “I wanted the fragrance to translate the idea of tender, cottony wood with a literally irresistible clean smell. That’s why I started by choosing a very specific, sheer and floral fraction of patchouli.”
Freed from its raw facets, this crystal-clear patchouli is paired with a velvety bouquet of roses and lit up by the spicy notes of pink peppercorn. A touch of cashmere wood gives this composition an enveloping, full-bodied feel, while diaphanous white musks evoke the scent of soft, fresh laundry against your skin.
Since it was founded in 1906, Van Cleef & Arpels has embodied the virtuosity of jewellery savoir-faire.
Fuelled by an endlessly renewed inventive spirit, the Maison's excellence has given rise to timeless creations and exceptional techniques: Mystery Set™, Zip necklaces, Poetic Complications® watches, and carefully selected Pierres de Caractère™ gemstones have all revolutionised the jewellery world.
Since it was founded in 1906, Maison Van Cleef & Arpels has continuously worked on exceptional pieces thanks to the masterful skills of its “Golden Hands” and its poetic, enchanting vision of the world. It is in this narrative world that the Maison’s creativity and imagination produce “L’Extraordinaire”.
The fruit of long years’ work and an intense collaboration with automaton maker François Junod, the project also owes its existence to the savoir-faire of the numerous craftsmen who have taken part in its creation.
It was this idea that gave rise to the Maison's new chapter in fragrance, the “Collection Extraordinaire”, a Fragrance Collection reminiscent of its finest High Jewellery pieces/works: a High Perfumery Collection.
