Lilas Exquis - Jacques Fath

Lilas Exquis is a reference to Jacques Fath’s favorite color and flower, Lilac. Even if it gives the impression of a delicate harmony, the sensations go crescendo.

An unexpected fragrance from La Maison Jacques Fath. Lilas Exquis is playful yet deeply surprising. It begins with a vibrant green opening that challenges the typical expectations of a floral scent, featuring bright notes of Bergamot, the fresh sweetness of Hyacinth, and the juicy depth of Blueberry.

As it evolves, the heart reveals a modern interpretation of Lilac, complemented by the floral aquatic notes of Magnolia and the sweet, honeyed nuances of Linden Blossom. The introduction of a surprising Violet Cream Accord adds a delicate layer, enhancing the sensual freshness of the Linden Blossom and creating an intriguing interplay of scents.

In the base, the fragrance is anchored by the rich, earthy warmth of Ambrette Absolute, while Timbersilk offers a smooth, woody depth. Ambroxan introduces a modern, resinous quality, and Musk weaves throughout the composition.

“LILAS EXQUIS’ opening is fresh and transparent, then becomes sweeter and floral: the idea was to render the same sensation as when a Lilac flower is freshly picked.” – Luca Maffei, perfumer
