‘Werable Indolcence. Fragrance that celebrates indolence as a form of art. Soft, daring, gourmand — and absolutely unforgettable.
Doux Ennui opens with a bright and gourmand start, evoking the splendor of the french court — a true luxury to wear. The freshness of mandarin blends with the velvety sweetness of apricot jam in a refined, ironic tribute to the iconic brioches that made Marie Antoinette famous. The exotic touch of ylang ylang adds a first whisper of sensuality, like an unexpected caress among the velvets of versailles. At the heart, the fragrance becomes more intense and seductive: a ripe, juicy peach melts into the creaminess of salted butter, evoking the carefree indulgence of an era that loved to exaggerate. Ylang ylang returns, deeper, enriching the composition with aristocratic nuances. In the base, a precious accord of osmanthus, vanilla, benzoin, amber, and musk creates a long-lasting and irresistible olfactive signature that dances between innocence and transgression — just like the queen who inspired it.’ – THOO
