The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2025 by Juliette Has A Gun, Madeleine Impériale is a captivating Oriental Vanilla fragrance that weaves together the rich, comforting notes of vanilla and honey with warm spices and oud. This composition opens with a hint of blood orange, adding a subtle freshness to the sweet and spicy heart. The base layers of tonka, agarwood (oud), patchouli, and sandalwood create a sumptuous warmth that envelops you like an embrace.

Romano Ricci's vision for Juliette Has A Gun is rooted in romantic tragedy, with each fragrance serving as a modern interpretation of Shakespearean passion. Madeleine Impériale embodies this ethos, combining the sweetness of vanilla and honey with the depth and complexity of oud, resulting in a scent that is both comforting and alluring.

How to wear it

Apply Madeleine Impériale lightly to pulse points. The blood orange top note fades quickly, so the base notes of oud and sandalwood will take center stage after about half an hour. This fragrance is best enjoyed close to the skin for a more intimate experience.
