Eighteen niche fragrances selected in our boutique, grouped by family: from vanilla to the sea, from leather to rose.
A niche perfume says a lot about the person giving it. It’s not found everywhere, it doesn’t smell like everyone else’s, and the recipient will notice from the very first spray.
We’ve grouped them by olfactory family, because that’s where to start: with what the recipient already likes. For each one, you’ll find the main notes.
For vanilla lovers
Four interpretations: powdery, smoky, spicy, caramel.
Bruno Acampora
Vanyl, extrait de parfum
An adult vanilla. It opens with angelica and pink pepper, moves through powdery iris, and settles on myrrh and musk. Creamy, never cloying.

Jousset
Accident à la Vanille
Vanilla from the very first spray, followed by sandalwood and styrax, a resin that gives it a smoky, almost liqueur-like quality. For those who like their vanilla dark.

The sea and citrus
Fresh without being light: the Mediterranean, from Procida to the Aegean.
