CONTRE-JOUR is more than just a perfume: it is a presence, a fiercely free soul. Built outside conventional schemes, this fragrance reveals a dazzling yet elusive trail that invites you to never let yourself be defined. The perfume echoes the spirit of helichrysum, a wild Mediterranean flower, famous for its extraordinary longevity and therefore also called immortelle, a sun-drenched yellow flower, in contrast with the dark and untamable depths of its scent.
Master perfumer Annick Ménardo drew inspiration from here to create a fragrance that defies traditional olfactory structures. Helichrysum notes unfold a spicy and almondy nature, dancing alongside an intense rose absolute, embracing its shadows and thorns. To imprint this manifesto on the skin, sandalwood oil provides rhythm, amplifying the enigma of this creation. Attracted by the charm of contradictions, Annick Ménardo creates fragrances of a new era, for those who love their mystery.
