The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2019 by Celine, Saint-Germain-Des-Pres is a fragrance that captures the essence of its namesake neighborhood — a place where intellectual curiosity and sensory indulgence meet. The composition opens with a bright, crisp citrus note that cuts through the air like a fresh breeze off the Seine, before settling into a heart of white florals and iris that reads as a delicate balance between elegance and warmth. A powdery vanilla base adds depth and comfort, making this fragrance feel both familiar and inviting.

How to wear it

One or two sprays is sufficient — the bright citrus notes are the first to greet you, but they quickly give way to a more enveloping heart of florals and iris. The powdery base develops gradually over time, making it best suited for an afternoon out rather than a quick errand.
