The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 1993 by Nicolai Parfumeur Créateur, Sacrebleu is a floral fragrance created by François Robert and Patricia de Nicolai. The composition opens with fresh red berries and mandarin orange, bringing a burst of fruity vibrancy that soon gives way to the heart notes of jasmine and tuberose — two florals that blend into an intoxicatingly sweet bouquet. As the scent settles, warm spices like cinnamon and olibanum mix with vanilla and tonka bean, creating a rich, enveloping base that reads as both comforting and luxurious.
Apply Sacrebleu to pulse points for a more intimate experience — it reads best close to skin rather than projecting into a room. The fruity top notes fade quickly, so reapply after an hour or two if you want them to linger longer.
