Le Galion Tulipe Eau de Parfum

Le Galion Tulipe for Women is a niche fragrance creation by perfumer Thomas Fontaine. If this composition were to be projected onto a work of fine art, it would immediately bring to mind a painting from the Golden Age of Dutch art. It is a pure still life. Floral stems, a fresh, lush bouquet, fallen petals on a wooden table. Nearby, peeled fruits. It's a patinated painting. It is soft and veiled.

Perfumer Thomas Fontaine experiences this composition in the following manner. It begins with the emergence of a green tulip. To fully unveil it, the fresh blooms of galbanum are needed. Alongside these, he adds the scent of acacia, which brings with it fruity notes. The heart of the composition is then constructed. It comprises just three flowers. Narcissus for its greenery. Jasmine for its sweet, fruity chords. Ylang-ylang for a creamy note that varnishes the composition, coating it in patina. All of this rests on a durable base of cedarwood. In the end, its resinous scent is combined with sensual musk and a vanilla-earthly iris.
