Fabrice Pellegrin, creator of perfumes, chose a most exceptional raw material to compose Sans Artifice: exceptional White Tea known as Silver Needles or Yin Zhen. Extremely popular with Chinese imperial families throughout the ages, the gathering of this famous flower – a process also called “imperial” – happens only two or three days a year, and only by hand. This infinitesimally delicate and authentic Tea Leaf gets shaken up by the perfumer’s addition of sparkling notes of Ginger Essence for a translucent, crystal-like, citrusy feel. Sans Artifice is a breathtakingly, meticulously simple olfactory creation that blends perfectly to illuminate, above all, the synergy of the main ingredients. The utmost in unequivocal sophistication.

When selecting the main ingredient for the composition called Peur de Rien, Nathalie Lorson, creator of perfumes, drew inspiration from the courage and passion to innovate that has always fueled Givenchy. Refusing to give in to fear, Nathalie threw herself into harnessing the power of the Narcissus Flower, so legendary in the perfume world; so rarely explored; so difficult to handle. Gathered in France in its natural state and hand-picked in the heart of the high-altitude prairies of the Aubrac region, the Absolute Narcissus used in Peur de Rien gets an exhilarating splash of Orange Tarocco, sourced in Sicily, famous for leaving a generous and colorful trail. Peur de Rien dares the most intrepid of combinations, unleashing all the radiance of Narcissus.

Olivier Cresp, creator of perfumes, wanted to concoct a charismatic olfactory combination that captured the natural elegance and incomparable personality of Hubert de Givenchy. To celebrate the outstanding allure of the Fashion House’s founder, the perfumer explored a rare bird of the perfumery universe, unique and just as rarely used as the core of a fragrance: the incredibly elegant Pittosporum flower from Asia, famous for leaving the sunniest of trails and unleashing generous notes of Jasmine. To contrast this effortless luminosity, Pepper from Sri Lanka twists the flower with a hot, vibrant touch. A spicy, floral accord overflowing with panache.

Fabrice Pellegrin, creator of perfumes, has worked without compromise on a creation that incarnates all the tenacity that Hubert de Givenchy was famous for. Sans Merci is a fragrance composed around the intoxicating rareness of Davana, a sacred plant cultivated in the Indian region of Tamil Nadu. Its deliciously licorice, aromatically complex facets are counter-balanced with the earthy, woody accents of Vetiver sourced in Haiti. Because that’s precisely where the finest Vetiver in the world can be found. Sans Merci offers a duo of ingredients “born in bold”, a land where concessions have been banished …where each main ingredient leaves an indelible mark. For a sillage that’s Sans Merci.

With Garçon Manqué, Fabrice Pellegrin, creator of perfumes, explores the olfactory paradox of the legendary Osmanthus Flower. Although originally an Asian bud, its fragrance is far from floral. It hints at apricot and its velvety, fruity facets express a touch of the animal. This is what the creator strove to embellish with elegant Leather from Grasse that recalls a scent of tanned hide. Masculine and feminine, untamed and sophisticated, Garçon Manqué blurs the lines. An olfactory dash of ambiguity that resonates deeply with the idea of Couture as dreamed up by Hubert de Givenchy.

Olivier Cresp, creator of perfumes, wanted to emancipate Oud, considered one of the most exquisite woods used in fragrances for centuries. Eminently rare and complex, this ingredient has been confined to the same olfactory treatment for ages. Today, the perfume Indompté sets Oud wood free, proving it knows how to “take a walk on the wild side”.With Indompté, Oud unveils its secret side. The stereotypical, savagely discreet beast gets a new, much brighter, more flowery olfactory identity. And the perfumer added a burst of sharp Sicilian Mandarine, to exalt the many faces of chiaroscuro.

Amandine Clerc-Marie, creator of perfumes, has designed the most ingenious creation around one of the world’s most sought-after spices: Vanilla. The people of Madagascar’s art of cultivating this bean requires an exemplary level of patience and the most minute attention to detail. Enflammé is a fragrance that reveals all the authenticity of Vanilla and procures a deliciously seductive sense of vertigo that’s literally intoxicating. Embraced by Turkish Tobacco, harmonies collide, and the perfume radiates a warmth that enflames. For exponential seduction power.
