<Le Malentendu>, Albert Camus

Les Feuilles Mortes, inspired by a line from Albert Camus’s play <Le Malen- tendu>. "Autumn is a second spring when every leaf is a flower”.

The season filled with the warm hues of fallen leaves, a second spring: autumn. This fragrance gently conveys the comforting warmth of a fully blos- somed autumn.

This fragrance carries two names, each reflecting its essence. "Les Feuilles Mortes", meaning ‘dead leaves’, is named after the poem by Jacques Prévert and the song by Yves Montand of the same name. The English version, "Autumn Leaves”, performed by Nat King Cole, perfectly captures the mood of the fragrance.

Autumn is a season filled with the bittersweet pleasure of a subtle melan- choly. The crisp chill of the breeze, the solitude of fading daylight, and the wistful longing evoked by falling leaves imbue this season with a unique charm. This blend of subtle sorrow and nostalgic emptiness is a delightful kind of pain.

Much like autumn, which alternates between warm days and cool nights, this fragrance offers contrasting experiences: at times comforting, at others subtly melancholic.

Top note

The refreshing scent of green notes with a hint of moistness,
contrasted by the milky sweetness of fig and the spiciness of cardamom.

Middle note

The fruity, powdery softness of violet combined with the delicate, fresh aroma of lily of the valley.

Base note

The creamy, woody depth of sandalwood, complemented by the sweet, rich warmth of vanilla. The perfect harmony of creamy sandal wood and dry, sensual cardamom creates a rich, warm woody scent.

The fig’s unique, zesty freshness blends seamlessly with the floral notes of violet and lily of the valley, creating a fresh, harmonious fragrance. Cardamom adds a spicy touch, enhancing the cool, invigorating appeal. The creamy san- dalwood provides a warm, deep richness when paired with the sweetness of vanilla.
