Most vanilla in perfume is pale. The one at the centre of L'Ivrée Bleue is black vanilla, laid against essence of cane sugar and cocoa. ORMAIE wanted it to show what the house calls a form of animality.
The reference is the exoticism of Gauguin and the jungles Henri Rousseau painted. Rum, mandarin and lily at the top. Violet and orris in the heart, which the house calls the madness of the scent. Powder and cool florals laid over that much warmth should not hold together. Here they do. Vanilla, patchouli, benzoin and cacao make the base.
ORMAIE is the Paris house of Baptiste Bouygues and his mother Marie-Lise Jonak. Every composition is 100% natural and its essences are left to rest for three months before bottling. The pyramid rising from the bottle is the house's nod to the mystical side of this one.
A hundred millilitres, for a scent kept for after dark and put on at the throat as the last thing before going out.
