The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Julien Rasquinet launched Creme Imperiale in 2021 for Navitus Parfums, a brand known for its luxurious and sophisticated compositions. This unisex parfum opens with the bright zest of Sicilian lemon and plum, creating an initial contrast that is both fresh and fruity. The heart of the fragrance features jasmine sambac, Turkish rose, and iris, which weave together to form a rich blend of white florals. As it settles into its base notes of cinnamon, benzoin, guaiac wood, and Virginia cedar, Creme Imperiale transforms into a warm, spicy, and woody scent that exudes both comfort and elegance.

How to wear it

Apply Creme Imperiale sparingly — the initial fruity and citrus notes are bright but fleeting. The heart and base notes develop over time, so one or two sprays will ensure that the warm spiciness and woody depth emerge gradually throughout the day.
