Boutonnière n°7 - Eau de Parfum

€190.00
Description

A naturalist fragrance declaring the elegance of a single flower worn on a gentleman’s lapel.

Crisp, elegant & sophisticated.

History: May 1899, Foyer of the Opéra-Comique, Paris.

During the Opera’s intermission, a group of seven young men gather at the Grand Foyer in search of new flirtations.

Women of all sorts are lured in by the crisp, green scent of the men’s gardenia boutonnières, enlivened with the vetiver, bergamot, and lavender colognes they wear.

As they draw closer, the “Opera Flower” exudes its elegant masculinity, the last breath of a bloom sacrificed on a black-tie lapel.

Developed with Rodrigo Flores-Roux.

The story

A link between History, Architecture and Perfume...

Architectural history has the particularity of transporting us physically into the past, allowing us to understand its meaning. In a synesthetic experience of architecture, what we feel and smell is just as important as what we see. In essence, architecture is experience.

For Arquiste, the research carried out for the creation of a fragrance inspired by real-life experiences is just as complete as the research that leads to the restoration of an old building. Under construction, the clues justify the structure.

Through the meticulous search for authentic sources, the analysis of a specific time and place begins. Through the study of building materials, the literary history of the place and the site itself, the olfactory experience becomes more understandable.

Arquiste wishes to interpret the past in the present through perfume in order to link the olfactory memory to great moments in history.
