Gourmand

Indulgence isn't the first word that comes to mind when we think of perfume… And yet, gourmand fragrances are increasingly popular and adored today. Ethyl maltol, sacrasol, coumarin, or furaneol… While these may not ring a bell at first, they are actually very well-known substances. These natural and synthetic components, found in various foods, are now present in our perfumes! Gourmand perfumes reveal taste notes ranging from caramel to cotton candy to candied apple… True cocktails of happiness!

For perfume creators, gourmand notes are no longer a vice, so you can indulge in them to your heart's content! Gourmand perfumes are now an expression of sensuality and femininity. Gourmand doesn't have to be cloying, and perfumers have a wealth of fragrances that avoid this effect, such as vanilla or tonka bean. Gourmandise reveals an affirmation of the pleasures of life.

Charm, luxury, and sensuality—that's what gourmand perfumes embody today. The worlds of chefs and perfumers aren't so far apart after all...
