The Story

Meleg Fougere, crafted by Matthew Meleg for Meleg Perfumes, embodies the essence of a modern fougère with its aromatic and musky heart. The fragrance opens with a crisp blend of lavender, mint, and citruses that create an invigorating freshness. As it settles, notes of jasmine, star anise, and incense add complexity, while sandalwood and tonka bean provide warmth and depth without overpowering the composition. This balance between freshness and warmth makes Meleg Fougere a versatile choice for any occasion.

Application Tips

For optimal wear, apply two sprays to pulse points. The aromatic top notes are bright and fresh but quickly give way to warmer base notes that provide lasting comfort. This fragrance is best suited for daytime or evening wear in cooler environments.

Matthew Meleg portrait

Matthew Meleg, a self-taught independent perfumer in Vancouver — one of only a few in Canada — grew up on a farm, dropped out of Emily Carr University after a year, and relocated to Japan for a decade. He trained himself using the Basenotes forum and by ordering and cataloguing essential oils, going on to create resinous, potent fragrances using controversial ingredients like real animal musks and high oakmoss levels exceeding IFRA compliance, describing each scent as a diary entry reflecting his experience with PTSD.
