“My soul is transported by perfume as the souls of other men by music” Charles Baudelaire

To rediscover the timeless universe of perfume, way beyond the fashion of the moment, with an emphasis on accessible pricing.

Curiously enough, we do not have enough words to describe fragrances. This is why we have to borrow from the vocabularies of music or painting to describe fragrances and perfumes in their infinite subtlety.

We talk of perfumed notes or compositions, or use the analogy of an artist’s palette, since perfumers compose their creations in the same way as musicians or painters.

Since the 16^th century the music of western civilisation has been composed around the ‘perfect major chord’ and this is the basic concept of our range.

In perfumery, a chord is a fragrance effect created by a combination of two or more notes. The quality of the harmony produced depends on the proportional balance between these fragrance notes.

The great history of perfumes revolves around such “perfect chords”, simple chords which create a feeling of perfect harmony.

There are hundreds of them and now, with the Accord Parfait collection, contemporary perfumers want to share with you some of the most beautiful and timeless of these ‘perfect chords’.

You are invited to experience fragrances which are not influenced by the fashion of the moment; to rediscover natural harmony and simplicity.
