Description

Sidonie-Gabrielle Colette (1873-1954) A famous novelist, Colette moved to St Tropez in 1925. She said: "I know St Tropez. It still exists. It will always exist for those who get up at dawn.

PINE: In Tristan and Yseut, Béroul places the pine at the heart of the garden where the heroes meet and where the king hides to spy on their encounter. Its resinous fragrance borders the Mediterranean and shaded the garden of Colette's "treille muscate".

FIGUE: A warm summer fragrance that evokes the sun, crickets and holidays. Emblematic of the Mediterranean basin, where it has been cultivated for thousands of years, the fig is the oldest domesticated fruit.

JASMIN: Along with the rose, jasmine is one of the queen flowers of perfumery. For centuries, jasmine has been regarded in the East as a symbol of beauty and feminine temptation. Cleopatra is said to have gone to meet Marc Antony in a boat whose sails were coated with essence of jasmine.
