Bois Imperial by Quentin Bisch
“It is thrilling to create beauty, sensuality and excitement out of the invisible”

PRE-ORDER YOURS NOW!

An all-encompassing passion is what led Quentin Bisch, a former music student and artistic director of a performing company, to trust his nose and dedicate several years to studying fragrance composition and finding his true vocation. 

All the hard work paid off when he was honoured with France's highest prize of 2020 Perfumer of the Year.

In Bois Imperial, freshly crushed and spicy thai basil leaves meet the sparkling peppery and grapefruit facets of Nepalese Timut Pepper absolute. A brilliant combination that contrasts perfectly with the bold woody signature of the fragrance.

A green, rich and earthy Haitian Vetiver oil echoes with Georgywood – an exclusive molecule with powerful cedarwood tones. This vibrating woody association is illuminated by the sophisticated floral of Givaudin's Petalia.

Majestic Akigalawood truly signs off the fragrance. This exclusive natural ingredient is upcycled from Patchouli by Givaudin. Its unique spicy-woody character is enhanced by a rich Indonesian Patchouli oil and a powerful, sustainable note of Ambrofix.

The Arts continues to inspire Quentin. He creates perfumes such as Bois Imperial in the same way he might direct a theatre performance using strong ideas, careful embellishments and surprising effects.

Quentin has made fragrances for Jean Paul Gaultier, Paco Rabanne, Saint Laurent, Azzaro, Mugler, Chloe, Ex Nihilo, Etat Libre d’Orange...

The Musc by Calice Becker

As a child, Calice Becker once asked her mother how flowers get inside a bottle of eau de cologne. The liquid inside was transparent, but it smelled strongly of orange blossoms. Once she started studying perfumery, she discovered the answer to this mystery, and today she herself fills crystal bottles with flowers.

At once fresh, honeyed, and warm, The Musc is a subtle blend of captivating scents. It opens with red ginger from Laos and natural lavandin grosso* from France. Natural and sustainable beeswax brings a creamy sweetness to the heart, paired with a pure note of Nirvanolide musk. Australia’s natural sandalwood punctuates the blend with warm, woody tones.

Replanted 20 years ago, Australia’s Sandalwood Album provides Aboriginal communities with protection and sustainability for their land.

One of the most respected perfumers in the world, Calice Becker has created world-renowned fragrances such as Dior J’adore and other “chef-d'oeuvre” for YSL, Marc Jacobs and By Kilian.

Nice Bergamote by Antoine Maisondieu

"I imagine this fragrance as a tribute to the aristocratic beauty of Calabrian Bergamot, sublimating it with a few rose and jasmine petals and some precious woods softened by tonka beans."

Antoine Maisondieu

A sunny burst of the finest natural Calabrian bergamot leaves an impression of brightness behind, woven with a natural floral accord of rose petals, jasmine, and Ylang Ylang from the Comoros Archipelago. Precious cedarwood creates a warm base, softened by Tonka beans from Venezuela.

Nice Bergamote features a natural and sustainable variety of Ylang Ylang from the Comoros. It is harvested with a program of lowering the impact on the local ecosystem and by implementing a replanting program of trees.

It also features a duet of natural bergamots : Bergamote integral Orpur from Italy and Bergamot oil, as well as natural Jasmine Grandiflora Extract and natural Cedarwood extract. 

Essential Parfums source Tonka beans that support local Venezuelan communities, with microcredit opportunities and agreement to protect the local fauna.

We ship internationally with FedEx

And then there were 10.

Far too often, much like a ghost-writer of a best-selling novel, the master perfumer remains silent in the background, working solely behind-the-scenes of the big brand names, celebrities, and designers. 

Essential Parfums' mission is to celebrate the true artists behind their fragrance creations;  together with mother nature's ingredients, THEY are the stars. 

Essential Parfums is a tribute to the talent, passion, and creativity of their master perfumers. From the ability to translate pure emotions into scent to unsurpassed artistry, their perfumers understand what makes a scent truly special.

The Essential Parfums Discovery Set allows you to discover the scents of five master perfumers at home, in your own time, and at your own pace.

This brand new discovery set includes new master perfumers and includes:

Patchouli Mania by Fabrice Pellegrin

Mon Vetiver by Bruno Jovanovic

Allow these beautifully crafted fragrances to work with your unique skin. Sprayed on the wrist, a scent will change over the course of the day and smell different depending on the weather and your inherent biology. This is the beauty of natural perfumery.

Enjoy the discovery.
