The start of our day sets the tone for what follows, and there’s nothing quite like the energy and refreshment of a bright morning to inspire a sense of renewal and optimism. It’s a time for revitalization, both of the spirit and the senses, reminding us of the joy found in everyday moments. Capturing this essence, the Haute Parfumerie Maison, Parfums de Marly, has introduced its latest fragrance, “Perseus,” a tribute to the invigorating mornings at the Château de Marly during the reign of Louis XV.
Now available exclusively in their boutique located in the heart of Dubai Mall, the latest sun-kissed fragrance unfolds with lively top notes of pink grapefruit, bergamot, and blackcurrant bud, leading to a heart that blends the earthiness of vetiver with the sweetness of pineapple, rounded out with green mandarin and geranium. The base notes ground the fragrance with a mix of dry and cashmere woods, alongside the marine freshness of ambergris. Designed to maintain its freshness across all skin types, “Perseus” achieves a universal appeal through its thoughtful composition.
Parfums de Marly’s meticulous approach to fragrance creation is evident in Perseus. The brand’s dedication to natural ingredients and the fine art of perfume-making ensure that the scent adapts harmoniously to different skin chemistries, offering a consistently vibrant experience to all wearers.
Dressed in a bottle of sunny yellow, Perseus also visually conveys its message of optimism and vitality. The choice of colour not only represents the fragrance’s lively character but also protects its integrity by shielding it from light, all the while avoiding artificial colorants. The design subtly nods to the royal symbol of the sun, which adorned the residences of French monarchs at Marly, aligning the perfume with themes of regal elegance and renewal.
With Perseus, Parfums de Marly artfully bridges the gap between the splendour of bygone eras and the flair of contemporary life. This fragrance stands as a testament to the brand’s bold creativity and its reverence for France’s rich perfumery heritage, offering a sophisticated scent that celebrates the luxurious spirit of the 18th century through a modern lens.
The Parfumerie Maison also celebrated the launch of the new fragrance with a special lunch and cocktail party at Lucia’s in Dubai. Guests enjoyed an atmosphere capturing the essence of the fragrance, highlighting themes of freshness, energy, and elegance, thanks to Léa Sfeir’s designed event decoration. This celebration brought the luxurious and creative spirit of Parfums de Marly to life, giving attendees a unique experience of the “Perseus” world.
