Amber fruity-floral fragrance, elegant and intense, with fresh and green shades, LUXE CALME VOLUPTE is a luxurious and opulent fragrance that expresses the desire for a sensual place of calm, a suspension of daily worries, a pause in human anxieties.

In the current historical context, I felt the need to offer not a stimulating and confrontational creation, but something that can bring comfort to the mind, an invitation to connect to oneself and to temporarily forget the daily worries.

“Luxe Calme Volupté” is a recurring verse from Baudelaire's magnificent poem, Invitation to travel:

Here, everything is orderly and beautiful,
Luxury, calm and pleasure.

In this poem, Baudelaire invites his lover to join him in an exotic place where they can live in peace and quiet, while reflecting his decadent aesthetic.

Luxe Calme Volupté is also the name of a large painting by Henri Matisse - which is very dear to me - conveying the same ideas as those which inspired my perfumes, namely the contrast of a calm and peaceful character on one side, and sensual and decadent elements on the other.
