A tenacious freshness inhabits Géranium pour Monsieur, which is an alternative to classic “aromatic fougères.” A heart of Chinese geranium, notes of mint and anise, spices such as clove and cinnamon, sandalwood, and a generous cocktail of white musks are the main actors in this fragrance of a novel genre. Rare ingredients like frankincense resinoid or Siam benzoin add a particular sophistication to this impression of freshness and cleanliness.

The Perfumer : Dominique Ropion
Dominique Ropion trained at Roure Bertrand Dupont in Grasse, then in Paris, before joining Jean-Louis Sieuzac, one of the greatest technicians in perfumery. Today a star perfumer at IFF, his work is distinguished by a blend of precision and freedom, and a taste for risk and experimentation. Curious about everything and a perfectionist like a watchmaker, he calibrates his accords in a methodical, patient, and meticulous manner. Dominique Ropion loves to marry extremes to find novel balances and unexpected formulas. He is an adventurous formulator, instinctive yet also extremely rigorous; a particularly inventive man and an outstanding technician.
