Portrait of a Lady is perhaps Dominique Ropion’s most sublime achievement – an overdose of the finest Turkish rose absolute (400 flowers per 100ml bottle), blended with raspberry, cassis, clove, cinnamon, patchouli and amber. Simmering and stunning, profound sillage and mysterious alluring sexuality.
Consider perfume a portrait of its wearer: the sound of her voice, her gaze, the way she plays cards. At once timeless and resonant with today, here is a scent that speaks of her innate sophistication. Charm that emanates from within, boldly depicted without; an expressive portrayal of modern grace.

Frederic Malle’s concept for Editions de Parfums has been to assemble some of the greatest perfume talents in the industry to establish a publishing house of fragrance featuring a new stable of outspoken and provocative olfactory authors.
His mission was to bring inspiration back to the ‘hidden heart’ of perfumery: commissioning the perfumers to move away from the constraints and demands of today’s mass market and encouraging them to create scents without restriction, from the outer limits of their imagination.
These highly unusual and imaginative fragrances herald a new purity and style in the world of fragrance; rare and precious ingredients are combined in stunning collectors pieces, each one a triumph of the perfumer’s art.
