The Story

Night throws its mask over Paris, the City of Light radiating from the splendor of freedom. In the streets, artists and writers capture the games of love and seduction in their modern languages. Champagne flows over crystal pyramids, and the very first jazz bands make the cafe walls tremble. A twirling Vanilla vanishes while playing hide-and-seek with vigorous Vetiver. There is not a second to lose in moments such as these; everything is possible. The night belongs to those who know how to live it.

The House

Gérald Ghislain founded Histoires de Parfums as an olfactive library — fragrances written like books, each telling the story of a famous character, a mythical year, a poem, or a piece of music. ISIPCA-trained, he composes in the classic French manner. Many entries in the catalog are titled with a single year, and the goal of every one is the same: make you feel something.
