An intimate and deep perfume, Autoportrait is a fragrance you wear for yourself, resonating with your own personal harmony. A companion, a reflection of yourself, familiar and warm, in which you rediscover your own spirit and inner serenity.
The soul of woody notes laid bare. A soothing dose of nature and enveloping resin. Breathtaking in the deliberate unveiling of its many facets, the essence of Autoportrait is truly revealed in its silage... absolutely addictive!
Autoportrait – Luc Lapôrte
A self-portrait may be the answer to this equation in one unknown: the self.
Eternally superficial, beauty gives us access to the profound, hidden meaning of nature. Seeing one’s reflection is to experience inner harmony; one that ignites an aesthetic emotion that, through the gaze, is able to dissolve all inner conflicts.
It is not forbidden to be fascinated, swept away, spellbound by one’s own image. Aesthetic judgment is reflective judgment. What fascinates us really? Beauty itself or that which it conceals? There is nothing here to hide for this is all about the self. I confide without holding back. There lies a promise of shared happiness.
I look at myself and in that self perceive the beauty of the world. I embrace the gentle violence of meaning, one that enters me through the doors of sensitivity.Gaze into your image to have a clear mind and heart. Like an intimate and visual diary, the self-portrait reveals the truth or fiction of your own face at any given time. Repeat the process as many times as necessary. The self-portrait is, beyond all doubt, conducive to contemplation.
Delve into the depths of the self by perusing the surface. Welcome the fluid metaphor for it fits into the frame. The first faithful surface, well before the mirror, it is like the ancestor of the technique of immortalizing one’s own reflection.
The beautiful Narcissus is the eternal witness. Seeing his face upon the waters, he fell in love.

End Notes: Sandalwood, Patchouli, Vanilla, Musk Leather
A sensual and mysterious fragrance, Chambre Noire reveals itself from the shadows using the spotlight of the vibrant top note. A fragrance to be shared in the privacy of some far-off hotel room.
It reveals its character gradually, exuding sensual notes of leather against a backdrop of warmth and opulence.
Chambre Noire – Clémence René-Bazin
What happens in the darkroom? Mystery.
Behind the thick curtain of the imagination, minds ignite. Serge Gainsbourg did sleep in a dark room but it was another genius, Leonardo da Vinci, who would win the paternity test.
In the darkroom, light is queen and darkness the heir apparent. Light uses the closed space to cast shapes and contours. The darkroom is magical. Its optical formula transforms, with astounding precision, the real into its inverted and reverted image. It plays tricks on the eye and makes us see the world upside down. The eye becomes dizzy.
In the darkroom, shadows are promises. To satiate the obscure object of photographic desire, it is worth taking the time to do it in the dark. Isolated in this space, something from the realm of intimacy and secrecy occurs. A lover’s ritual takes shape. Patience and attention are required for the enchantment to happen, for the dark to illuminate.
The darkroom re-wakens focus and contemplation and keeps speed and haste at bay. It is a temple for the eye to meditate; a temple, for it shelters as much as it reveals; captures as much as it delivers

Head Notes: Yuzu, Elemi, Pink Pepper, Black Pepper, Sichuan Pepper
Heat notes: Star
Base Note: Rum, Ceedar, Ambre gris
A sparkling and festive perfume, Still Life is a c
elebration of life!
A surprising and luminous perfume that invites you to celebrate in style with a whirlwind of exotic cocktails.
The brilliance of Japanese Yuzu, accompanied by a cocktail infusion of rare peppers, rum and warm woods. A stark contrast between ever present freshness and comforting, warm notes. A woody citrus fragrance of contrasts, energetic and alive!
Still Life – Frédéric Lebain
A breeze could throw them off course yet Frédéric’s 2D spheres – faceted and seemingly frozen – continue spinning like lyrical and living sculptures.
The paper they are made of is as crisp as the cocktails enjoyed around them. They dream of busting moves on the dance floor like teen girls indulging in the excitement of their first summer night parties.
These images froze life to better prolong it. To immortalize nature is quite different from what the French call without any apparent reason nature morte, or literally “dead nature.”
Perpetuated by the game of images of images, the balls reflect their joie de vivre as if every facet were carrying out its own photosynthesis. They breathe through every pore of pages transformed into paper balls and confetti and celebrate the coming of a Dionysian world of dance and delight.
Here, they appear in time suspended, a moment frozen for all eternity. More appropriate than the French, the English still life does more justice than the French word to the life still resonating within. Cocktail attire optional
