Parisian style

  • Finally, in the eighteenth century, perfume fashion arrived in Paris. It also happened thanks to the famous French king Louis on 14. The Sun King has dedicated a real passion to many arts and in particular to that of perfumery. He imposed fashion for opulent and omnipresent perfumes. It is even said that he ordered to perfume the water of the Versailles fountains!


  • Have you any idea what came first: Paris or Perfume? The answer seems to be evident, and yet. I invite you to explore the origins of the perfume. My sincere interest in the nature of perfumes was awakened basically thanks to the book with the authentic name “The Perfume: The story of a Murderer” by Patrick Süskind


  • Let’s have a walk, my dear visitor, from the royal and emblematic fountains of Place de la Concorde to the charming and romantic Medici fountain. On the hot summer day, it’s hard to find a better place or shelter from the hit and crowd in Paris unless you know where to go. In order to find it, we’ll stroll through the Place de la Concorde, the boulevard Sainte Michel and Luxemburg garden


  • The color of Paris is grey - that’s what I thought of contemplating the city one Sunday morning from the roof of the Sacre - Coeur Basilica. Was it because of the weather, the architecture, or my mood, I wondered? In comparison with red, the gray color is definitely less emotional. It is detached and neutral. I wear it when I want to be unnoticed, discrete, and classic


  • I love Sunday in Paris! I adore it! Unlike the other days in the week, when the streets are overcrowded, and life is chaotic, Sunday brings calm and peace to the city. In the same fashion appear the cafes bars, streets, and parks.  In reality, the city exudes a scent of freedom and harmony.
