THE CREATOR
Perfume has been part of my life for as long as I can remember. Since my early days in cinema, fragrance has always played an important role in my films—whether as a character trait, a means of communication, or a shared language between the characters and the audience. In Extase, it is a question of the ‘scent of holiness’; in The Fall of Men, a young heroine travels to the Middle East for her thesis on perfume; and in my upcoming film, a teenager maintains a bond with his mother, who has become disabled, by having her inhale a cologne she once cherished. More broadly, cinema and perfume share a natural and profound relationship within the collective imagination: the former is marked by emblematic works on the subject—Scent of a Woman, The Scent of Green Papaya, and others—while the latter is imbued with a cinematic aura, from Marilyn Monroe and ‘her’ No. 5 to today’s promotional films that merge with the seventh art.
One day, I decided to go further in this fusion of my two passions and to tell stories in a different way: olfactory stories that awaken imagination, the senses, and memories, expressed through fragrances of my own creation. There is a close connection between the stories I tell through cinema and those I tell through my fragrances. As in my films, my perfumes address subjects that are dear to me. In cinema as in perfumery, the goal remains the same: to create emotion, provoke reflection, inspire travel—and, if possible, to enchant life.
