FACES OF FRANCIS Necessities Faces of Francis Twisted Lily Shop Vilhelm Parfumerie Faces Of Francis EDP Shop Vilhelm Parfumerie Faces Of Francis EDP Faces of Francis by Vilhelm Parfumerie Basenotes. AN ODE TO INSPIRATION AND CREATIVITY What is the artist thinking about in his studio? He thinks back to this volcanic island, somewhere in the Mediterranean. He thinks back to the colors and smells of Tangier where pistachio mixes with saffron. He thinks back to all his past or imaginary trips that still awaken his senses. Inspiration is a journey between memories and desires in the present. NOTES TOP: ALDEHYDES, SAFFRON MIDDLE: TOASTED PISTACHIO, JUNIPER WOOD, DRIFTWOOD BASE: OUD WOOD, AMBERGRIS, CYPRIOL, VETIVER, PYROGENIC STYRAX More than a perfume, Vilhelm Parfumerie is a library. If some scents are silences, these are tales. Within identical bottles, fragrances are so many narratives that call to all senses, housed in a hefty bottle of spun glass, dressed in a saffron yellow label that nods to a piece of Bakelite found in a Parisian flea market. Northern lights and Hollywood highlights. North and South. Freshly cut grass and caressing oud. Bracing freshness and burning summer warmth. Simple pleasures and lavish times. Each fragrance is the culmination of a broad, creative and collaborative process a rare blend of vintage and new that sparks recognition but not familiarity. From its dynamic, innovative scents to the heritage design and timeless prints, Vilhelm Parfumerie is a nod to the past, expressed in our contemporary olfactory language and aesthetic.
