The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2011 by Elie Saab, Le Parfum is a masterpiece crafted after an exhaustive process involving 279 trial formulas. The fragrance opens with the bright freshness of African Orange Flower and Jasmine, before settling into a rich base of White Honey, Patchouli, Rose, and Virginia Cedar. This composition has earned its place as a modern classic, praised for its luminous Grasse jasmine and the warm comfort of its rose-honey accord. Le Parfum was also celebrated with a rare hat trick, winning the Fragrance Foundation (FiFi) Award in three major markets: UK, US, and France.

How to wear it

Apply Le Parfum to pulse points for a warm, enveloping effect that lasts throughout the day. The honeyed base notes develop gradually, so it's best not to layer too heavily initially — two sprays are usually enough to ensure a rich, lasting scent.
