Histoires de Parfums

While in search of a shoe line suitable for our shop, we stumbled upon HISTOIRES de PARFUMS. Random that a perfume line would be showing in the hallway of a footwear trade show, but nonetheless, I guess a good strategy since it caught our attention.

The 12 scents, created by Gerald Ghislain, are governed by no rules other than inspiration. With a "luxurious imagination," he brings his stories to life through scent. The stories are to be told not through words, but on the skin, in a language universal to everyone.

This is why we love Frenchies. They wrap romance into everything.

Spotless crepe paper, titles in color, bottles chiseled in glass: Histoires de Parfums is smartly bound in twelve volumes to create a unique library of scented wonders.

Among our favorites, Ambre 114. Composed of 114 elements, all intensifying the natural sensuality of grey amber. We are requesting this be made in a shower gel and anti-perspirent so that everyone around us (that stinks) can smell this lovely.
