Marc-Antoine Corticchiato
Perfumer's Word
"Immortelle fascinates me. It is all around my place in the Corsican maquis, where I spend as much time as possible. I wanted its radiance during the summer solstice, when it is gorged with sun. It was a chef friend of mine who unwittingly gave me the key to the composition: associating ingredients that have the same color. “It always works”, he claimed. As soon as I’d found my saffron – apricot – lemon accord, I knew I had the starting point of my story. Since I wanted a velvety texture, I chose a natural, juicy apricot, which also bring a soft orange light. This is one of my shortest formulas. I wanted it to be impactful, obvious, while remaining elegant."
