Fabrice's story

The story

Pellegrin brings a painterly sensibility to his compositions — his fragrances feel like sun-drenched landscapes rendered in scent, full of herbaceous greens, warm woods, and golden resins. He is the creator of Diptyque's beloved L'Ombre dans l'Eau.

How Fabrice works

Signature

Sun-warmed naturalism. Pellegrin's compositions glow with Mediterranean light — aromatic herbs, ripe fruits, and warm woods blended with the ease of someone who grew up surrounded by the raw materials of perfumery.
