ORMAIE Les Extraits Set

Two of the house's stories, told again.

Baptiste Bouygues and Marie-Lise Jonak founded ORMAIE.

The woods of a night at the Opéra Garnier, bound together by waxed parquet and incense, turn gourmand. A chypre signature takes on a liquorous damask plum.

ORMAIE is a house of French Haute Parfumerie founded by Baptiste Bouygues and Marie-Lise Jonak. Creativity, excellence and time sit at the centre of what it makes, and the work is personal before it is anything else: a father's lavender and the Armenian paper always kept in a pocket, a leather bookmark carried on travels, the wooden desks of the school the founders went to.

Every release is built from raw materials chosen for quality. The house has brought together artists and artisans to write each chapter of its story. The newest, Les Facettes, sets faceted glass under a metal cap whose colour and material echo the containers a laboratory uses to keep raw materials pure. A balance between emotion and precision.
