Experts have long debated the best way to apply a fragrance. Some insist that dabbing the scent onto specific body parts such as the décolleté, inside of the wrists and sides of the neck will maximise the longevity of an evocative scent. Others favour the “spritz and step” method, which involves walking into a cloud of perfumed mist, to ensure that the fragrance isn’t too strong or overwhelming.

Renowned fragrance maker and haute perfumery maison Henry Jacques has tackled this dilemma by launching Les Brumes, a collection that gives users the freedom and versatility to play with their fragrance, while allowing them to create a ritual that is uniquely theirs.

Which Henry Jacques Les Brumes perfume is for you?

Les Brumes is the newest edition of the maison’s iconic Les Classiques, a quintessential perfume line that features 50 scents that form the foundation of the Henry Jacques universe.

Les Brumes offers a lighter, more modern expression of these traditional essences by giving luxury lovers even more choice when it comes to perfume application. The act of perfuming is no longer routine and is transformed into a joyful and uplifting experience that is part of our everyday lives.

Each Les Brumes scent is housed in a stunning crystalline glass flacon that was carefully designed by the maison’s artistic director and long-time friend of the founding family, Christophe Tollemer. Every bottle is crowned with an innovative and highly technical spray, designed in-house. It dispenses a delicate, airy yet highly intense cloud of fragrance that envelops the body like a second skin.

It also features an interchangeable top, which gives the wearer the opportunity to personalise their luxury perfume experience according to their mood or the occasion. On some days they can opt for a simple, delicate spray which delivers a perfumed mist to the skin, hair and body. Other times they may wish to add a few drops to the fingers or palms of the hands, then apply the perfume directly to the skin with a gentle rub or light caress, creating a more intimate and sensual ritual.

What’s more, wearing perfume is then transformed into a fresh and exciting sensorial experience that redefines the art of living the Henry Jacques way.
