Histoires de Parfums 1826 Eugenie de Montijo Eau de Parfum (sample)

Histoires de Parfums fragrances epitomize French perfumery expertise, characterized by luxury, nobility, and creativity. These are the scents envisioned by Gérald Ghislain, a man with a vivid imagination who decided to bring his stories to life through perfumes. The future and last Empress of France, Eugénie de Montijo, was born in Granada, the jewel of Andalusia. A sparkling beauty, whose captivating nature and temperamental elegance enchanted Napoleon III. This remarkable woman, who influenced the daily life and artistic refinement of her era, inspired the creation of this vibrant fragrance.

Top Note of bergamot imbues the scent with freshness and brightness. Bergamot offers a citrusy, slightly bitter, and very fresh aroma that energizes and lightens the composition, while tangerine accords weave sweet and fruity nuances into the pyramid.

Heart Note of ginger adds spiciness and warm zest to the fragrance. Ginger creates an impression of movement and dynamism. Notes of white flowers, such as jasmine, gardenia, and tuberose, emphasize the elegance and femininity of the composition. They express tenderness and sophistication, evoking the feeling of a luxurious bouquet. Sweet-spicy notes of cinnamon provide a sense of comfort and coziness, adding depth and complexity to the heart note. Violet integrates into the pyramid with a delicate, powdery, and slightly woody scent.

Base Note of amber evokes a sense of luxury and elegance. Sweet vanilla adds a feeling of comfort and warmth, highlighting the pleasant tenderness of the composition. Woody notes give the fragrance depth and structure. The resinous, slightly sweet, and smoky scent of incense creates a sense of depth and mystery. Musk, with its sensual warmth and sweet-powdery, slightly animalic aroma, brings an intimate and cozy feeling. Patchouli rounds out the pyramid with its rich, earthy, and woody scent, providing strength and longevity to the composition, creating a complete, harmonious base.
