Fragrance Description
Anatole Lebreton's Grimoire is the fifth fragrance that takes inspiration from an ancient tome of spells known as a Grimoire. The fragrance is a unique composition that takes you to a secluded cabin overgrown with green moss and surrounded by a well-cultivated garden of herbs and spices, emanating an imposing and comforting fragrance of warm, rich woods and dusty pages. The aroma is accompanied by the hint of incense, suggesting secrets waiting to be discovered in a magical realm filled with untapped power.
Grimoire's fragrance composition includes incense, pepper, smoky wood, bergamot, and lavender, resulting in a dry, warm scent with a subtle cumin note. The fragrance has moderate projection and sillage, with excellent longevity. The scent is ancient, rational, intellectual, and calm, with a depth and atmosphere unmatched by other perfumes. It transports the wearer to a calm place as if exploring the grounds of a medieval abbey and flipping through old books. The vibrant herbs in the scent bring to mind remedial tonics and fortifying potions boiled up in a cauldron from recipes passed down over generations.
Grimoire: a lot of frankincense, aromatic herbs, and a hint of cumin evoking dirt and the not so clean. Remembering us that under the spiritual volutes of incense hides the bestial smells of the living body.Anatole Lebreton, Perfumer
nd recipes: did you know that it contains two kinds of lavender?⠀First of all, a very fine lavender from Haute Provence, which is the lavender we all know.Depending on the altitude at which it grows, lavender does not have the same content and proportion of fragrant molecules. On the plains, it is more aromatic, at higher altitudes it is more flowery, soft and sweet.Haute Provence offers this topical balance which makes it an olfactory perfection.⠀Next comes Seville Lavender, known as Luisieri, in the form of absolute.A completely different story, much more liquorous, grassy, resinous and amber. A real marvel, unfortunately produced in very small quantities. It links the aromatic and resinous top notes of the head with the more ambered incense base of Grimoire. Anatole Lebreton, Perfumer
