CONTRE-JOUR is more than just a perfume - it is a presence, a fiercely free soul by Annick Ménardo.
Built against conventional patterns, this fragrance reveals a dazzling yet elusive trail that invites one to never be defined. The perfume echoes the spirit of the mediterranean wildflower ‘Everlasting Flower’, famed for its extraordinary longevity, a sunlit yellow bloom, contrasting with dark, untamable depths of its scent.
Master perfumer Annick Ménardo drew from this inspiration to craft a fragrance that defies traditional olfactive structures. Notes of the Everlasting Flower unfurl a spicy, almond-tinged nature, dancing alongside an intense rose absolute, embracing its shadows and thorns. To imprint this manifesto on the skin, sandalwood oil offers a rhythm, amplifying the enigma of this creation. Captivated by the allure of contradictions, Annick Ménardo creates fragrances of a new era, for those who cherish their own mystery.
