Description

Himitsu Violets by Régime des Fleurs offers a delicate yet intriguing take on the violet, moving beyond traditional interpretations. It opens with a whisper of powdery muguet and heliotrope, setting a cool and fresh tone. As it develops, golden saffron sprinkles a subtle spice over a bouquet of violets, creating a refined, almost leathery nuance. The fragrance settles into a comforting base of tolu balsam and plush suede, leaving a warm, weightless glow that feels both modern and sophisticated. This scent wears like a secret, surprising and memorable for those who appreciate an unusual floral. Perfumer: Dominique Ropion

Perfumer

Dominique Ropion

Dominique Ropion is considered to be one of the greatest perfumers of our time. In a career spanning 40 years, Dominique Ropion has distinguished himself in every field, from confidential perfumery to mainstream success. He created or co-created some of the industry’s most iconic fragrances, including Carnal Flower and Portrait of a Lady for Editions de Parfums Frederic Malle; La vie est Belle by Lancôme; Alien by Thierry Mugler; and Flowerbomb by Viktor & Rolf. Yet nothing predisposed this Parisian to become a perfumer, nor to to earn the nickname of ‘Master of of flowers’. It was by chance during an internship, while studying physics, that he discovered the world of perfumery. Trained in Grasse, he has a precise style from the outset, nurtured by an intimate knowledge of the ingredients. Combining scientific rigour with an artist's approach, he gives concrete form to his personal ideal through his creations: to bring desirability to those who wear them. Dominique Ropion was named Master Perfumer at IFF in 2018.

Unique interpretation: It's celebrated as a modernist's violet, offering a fresh and cool take that stands apart from more traditional violet perfumes.
