T he word perfume comes down to us from the Latin phrase per fumum, literally meaning through the smoke. For initially resins and highly fragrant woods were burnt as fumigations, a way for men to communicate with the other world, that of the heavens and the gods. Fumigations also had a practical side from Antiquity to the Age of Enlightenment as a weapon against contagious diseases and epidemics. The art of perfume- making most likely began in Ancient Egypt, where so many civilised things began. It was an aromatic art and craft that journeyed to the Near and Middle East, Italy, Grasse, Paris and beyond, with today France remaining the centre of perfume making in Europe and possibly the world. Perfume making in France can trace its roots back to at least 17th century Versailles where arts and craftsmen rivalled one another to create the finest of products for the fashionable court. Their genius in creating fragrances went not only into scented colognes and waters but also sachets, gloves and fans, all key components of the court lifestyle. Perfume-making was elevated to the grade of art by Colbert during the reign of Louis XIV while the court of France became known as the perfume court during the reign of Louis XV by its European neighbours. Fragrances both old and new persevere in Paris, among them a number of long lasting scents. For 160 years, Guerlains mythical Eau de Cologne Impriale, has charmed the olfactory sense, while the house of Lanvin created its always scentfully in style Arpge in 1927, and 165 candles are being lit for the Grasse-based house of Molinard whose heady Habanita remains a singular sensation. Pierre-Franois-Pascal Guerlain opened his first boutique in Paris on the rue de Rivoli on the ground floor of the Meurice Hotel. He went on to create the now legendary Eau de Cologne Impriale for the Empress Eugnie in 1853 and would subsequently become the official supplier to the Emperor. The refreshing scent of orange, lemon, bergamot, aromatised with lavender and rosemary was turned out in a superb flacon covered with sculpted bees and gold framings for the perfume-maker wanted a prestigious encasing for its royal recipient, who also used it to soothe her migraines. The fragrance and its original bottle, made from period moulds are still available today. It all started back in 1849 for Molinard where five generations have succeeded one another. Celebrating its 165th birthday this year, the house is based in the fragrant-filled town of Grasse in the south of France, which can trace its perfume story back to the 16th century with the leather industry. When scented gloves became all the rage, local farmers supplied Grasse with local essential oils. The soil around Grasse is rich and jasmine, centifolia rose and plants of the mimosa family soon abounded to meet the demands of the burgeoning perfume industry. Molinard Jeune set up shop in the centre of Grasse in 1849 and the fashionable ventured inside for the enticing Eau de Cologne made by Hyacinthe Molinard. Queen Victoria even stopped in at one point. It was at that stage in 1894, that Albert Sittler, the ancestor of the Lerouge-Bnard family that owns Molinard today, purchased the shop. Created in 1921 as a perfume for masking cigarettes, Habanita became a success as a perfume in its own right and a great hit with the flappers. It was tucked into a black glass Art Deco bottle emblazoned with a frieze of nymphs and designed by Lalique. It remains a French signature fragrance today along side Habanita Esprit, dressed in white, a lighter take on the original heady number. Lanvins Arpge, a flamboyant floral has been both classic and iconic since it was brought out in 1927, with Lanvin planning a special edition to celebrate the houses 125th anniversary this year. Jeanne Lanvin wanted to offer her daughter, Marie-Blanche, a superb gift for her 30th birthday, and so she called upon the great perfume-maker Andr Fraysse to create a sumptuous bouquet. Essences like jasmine, rose, and ylang-ylang came together in the gift for Marie-Blanche, a virtuoso musician, hence the name of the perfume Arpge (arpeggio). And nearly 90 years after the original Arpge, Lanvin brings us Eclat dArpge Pretty Face, imagined by the houses artistic director Alber Elbaz. The fresh and joyful scent is encased in a very happy bottle replete with purple eyes and a mauve ribbon. Meanwhile, new, enticing names continue to appear on the fragrance horizon.

[ A P R I L i n P ari s ] 16WHERE Paris I APRIL 2014 from the sacred and ritualistic properties of perfume. Creator Philippe Di Mo joined forces with David Frossard, regarded as the distributor- philosopher, to bring out two trilogies of six unusual and very enticing fragrances and interior scents. These are spellbinding aromas, a case in point being those of the Eaux Sanguines trilogy drawing its inspiration from holy wines in rich colours of burgundy and blood red. The house also makes scented candles like Sang Noir, evoking the scent of the forest at night. Meanwhile, maker of fine pens and luxury accessories, Montblanc launched one of the most successful new perfumes of 2013, Legend, fruity, floral and musky all at once, for women, as a companion of its first foray into perfume making with Legend for men in 2011. Paris has gone a step beyond for perfume with the boutique Jovoy, an original and very beautiful boutique devoted to rare and unusual perfumes. Powerful patchouli, sublime fragrances from the house of Amouage, born in the Sultanate of Oman, and Grossmith of London that supplied the royal family in the 19th century are among the fabulous finds brought together by Franois Hnin along with Jovoys own line of six perfumes. Also on hand are the perfumes of L.T. Piver, founded in 1774 and regarded as the oldest French perfume house still in existence. You can also organise a private visit, for a minimum of six people, of the boutique while enjoying champagne and macarons. The city of Versailles, by going back to its perfume roots has gone a step ahead with its Cour des Senteurs where the visitor can journey into a fragrant world of savours, flavours and scents. It brings together in one place, just 100 metres from the Chateau, rare fragrances, traditions, know-how and the raw materials that make up the universe of perfume making. The delightful promenade begins with the Jardin des Senteurs, The Scented Garden, which takes the visitor on a journey through a secret garden harbouring no less than 200 fragrant species of flora. Also found inside the courtyard devoted to perfume one finds the Maison des Parfums, the House of Perfume, which recounts the history of perfume and its close links with the city of Versailles. Four leading houses of French luxury whose products feature fragrance have also opened their doors in the midst of the courtyard. Guerlain, which has since 1828 been bringing the world fine beauty products and perfumes has a boutique featuring a jasmine- based perfume in homage to Marie Antoinette that can only be found in the store. Lentre offers a fine array of its savoury and sweet treats among them a jasmine macaron in honour of Marie Antoinette. Diptyque brings its wonderful scents for the home to the courtyard with a special boxed set of three small scented candles in tune with the fragrance garden outside while Maison Fabre, founded 90 years ago, presents its collection of perfumed gloves. Marie Antoinette indulged in floral scents: jasmine, rose, lily and violet. Jean-Louis Forgeron the celebrated master perfumed glove-maker offered the style-setting queen a pair and a new fashion was launched. It is a fashion that comes down to us today at the Librairie des Princes for the enchanting boutique of the Chateau of Versailles is carrying Marie Antoinettes line of perfumed gloves in lamb skin, hand- embroidered and lined with silk.

Pursuing its perfume tradition, Versailles is home to two of the worlds leading perfume institutions. The ISIPCA (the Institut Suprieur International du Parfum de la Cosmtique et de lAromatique Alimentaire), which delivers the only international diploma for the perfume- related professions, and the endearing Osmothque, an institution unique in its genre, a conservatory of perfumes. You might want to continue your Versailles perfume experience by visiting the Osmothque (from the Greek osmo-odour and theque-storage) a unique establishment dedicated to archiving scents, conserving perfumes and bringing extinct perfumes back to life. To pass through its doors you need to make an appointment. Within youll take in the fragrances of the leading raw materials used in perfume making and discover the lost masterpieces of Houbigant, Coty or Poiret. Heady, intoxicating, oud or agar is the mysterious, fragrant oil made from the resin produced by wild Aquilaria trees and has been used in the making of perfume in the Middle East for generations. Oud can mean wood or a piece of wood in Arabic and it is a substance that comes to us directly from natural activities for the dark and highly aromatic resin is produced when disease- carrying microbes enter and infect the bark of the Aquilaria trees and produce agarwood, a resinous heartwood that grows darker as the infection progresses. It is a scent bringing to mind smoked wood, leather, resin and something akin to wild animals. And today, this potent elixir is a source of inspiration for the finest of luxury perfume-makers among them Caron, Parfums de Nicola and Christian Dior. In elaborating Secret Oud, Caron blended the mysterious fragrance with rose attar and spicy saffron making for a captivating, spicy fragrance. This oriental, deep woody fragrance was skilfully blended by Richard Fraysse (son of Andr, the creator of Arpge), the houses perfume creator. Patricia de Nicolas concept for oud emerges in two eau de parfums: Amber Oud and Rose Oud. I created these fragrances based on the oud wood because I wanted to enrich my collection of powerful and long-lasting fragrances, explains the perfume-maker, With this extraordinary sumptuousness that is oud essence, a sign of purification in the Middle East, I wanted to bring an amber note to one of the perfumes and a rose note to another. Her ouds are magnified with patchouli, cedar of the Atlas and the enticing nagarmotha, a flowering sedge plant.

Historic monuments and museums await including the towns church immortalised on canvas by the artist, the 17th century Chateau of Auvers, the studio of the painter Daubigny, the house of Dr. Gachet, Van Goghs doctor and also an artist, and the Auberge Ravoux where the painters tiny bedroom, his last bedroom, is found. Many of these venues are putting on special exhibitions and programmes during the season and all of the places are within walking distance from one another in the town offering a [ A P R I L i n P ari s ] 18WHERE Paris I APRIL 2014 IN THE FOOTSTEPS OF VAN GOGH R olling fields of wheat, en eerily familiar church, a wending and bending river, the mighty Oise. These are the postcard settings found due north of Paris and whose ethereal beauty was interpreted on canvas by Vincent van Gogh. Today, those works are found in leading museums of the world. Since the 19th century, the beauty of Auvers- sur-Oise has attracted major artists drawn by the sparkling light and the ever-changing reflections of the Oise River upon which the town sits. Daubigny, Czanne and above all Van Gogh passed through this hamlet nestled at the gateway to the scenic Vexin region of France. The charming town of Auvers-sur-Oise is dedicating its cultural season this year to one of its most illustrious residents: Vincent van Gogh. Located just 30 kilometres from the French capital, this rural village owes its world renown to Van Gogh who in a letter to his brother Theo wrote, Auvers is seriously beautiful, it is deep country, typical and picturesque. He would paint nearly 80 works there in less than 70 days and among those canvases are some of the artists greatest works like the Church at Auvers, Wheat Field with Crows and the Portrait of Dr. Gachet. Van Gogh died in Auvers-sur-Oise, just 70 days after he arrived there, on July 29th 1890, from a self- inflicted gunshot wound and was subsequently buried there.
