Paradis Perdu

Eau de Parfum. Created with the vitality of Art nouveau, Paradis Perdu by Frapin is an ode to the vineyards around the property. The perfumer, Amélie Bourgeois, drew her inspiration from the expanses of land, conjuring effervescence with curved lines, somewhere between gushing and encircling.

A hint of sap is first to be noted, the new Eve in this Garden of Eden. It rises from the soil in a rustling of vetiver roots. Intertwined up the vine shoots, a sign of lasting freshness, the sap changes from crisp green to dark green. Basil, with its insolence as a new shoot, muddles the severe green of the large vine leaves. The bitter green of spinach leaves heralds the quirky elegance of this organic harmony. As in Art nouveau, Amélie has distilled nature and guided it to abstraction. In line with this joyful art, she has skilfully played with exotic green notes, changing Paradisamide into Paradise.
