The Tuileries collection draws its inspiration from a rare document preserved in the French National Archives: the Gazette des Atours de la Reine. In what appears to be an ordinary notebook, Countess Geneviève d'Ossun—a French courtier who served as a lady-in-waiting to Marie Antoinette—collected numerous fabric samples used to create the sovereigns’ many royal gowns and outfits.
It is in the heart of the Sun King’s gardens that this fragrance finds its soul, where fig trees catch the first glimmers of spring. Like a play of light and shadow, this elegant fragrance emerges from a contrast between light and shadow, between vegetal freshness and woody depth.
