New fragrances from S-Perfume & Cecile et Jeanne

Posted by Robin on 4 March 2005 8 Comments

Sophia Grojsman, the nose behind YSL Paris and Lancome Tresor, has a new fragrance under the indie-label S-Perfume. The fragrance, 100% Love, is described as:

The pulpy erotic part of a secret red fruit, the soft and wet velvety skin of rose petals in water, and a mystical "concoction" of incense and black chocolate.

The S-Perfume line also has fragrances by Alberto Morillas (the nose behind Armani Sensi & Kenzo Flower) and Christophe Laudamiel (Clinique Happy Heart, Elton John Black candle). They can be purchased directly from their website or from Fred Segal in Los Angeles.

Jewelers Cécile et Jeanne have released their first fragrance, Eliel. The notes include jasmine, coriander, sweet pea, osmanthus, leather, and patchouli. Read about it on Osmoz.

    The description of 100% Love sounds amazing; definitely different! I'm curious to check out their website…samples, anyone??

    They do have samples, pricey ($7) but large (4 ml). The whole line sounds very interesting to me, sort of reminiscent of Frederic Malle. I like a line that gives credit to their noses, so few bother.

    Thanks 🙂

    It's always so interesting to know the creator/history behind a fragrance…you're right about so few noses ever being mentioned for their work, it's a shame that they seem to get lost in the hype and marketing part of it.

    I think I saw some of these at Fred Segal Santa Monica at the beginning of February. They must be pretty popular, because the testers were fairly empty. But 100% Love had not been released yet, and that's the one I want to try. I'm ordering a sample today!

    Right- I agree. It's kind of like ghost-writing or script-doctoring. Those who really “work it” often are so behind the scenes no one outside of the industry ever hears about them. I really enjoy getting a chance to learn about perfumers and their work/passions. Wish all the info about them was more available.

    Wow, R, I had really never heard of any of these! I wish there was a Fred Segal on the East Coast, they have such a great selection. But why don't they sell perfume online?

    It does sound good! And Sophia Grojsman knows how to do rose.
