Oud wood revisited by Berdoues
Who does not know this elixir of glamor, this powerful cocktail of leather flowers and amber? More than a powerful perfume, Parfum de Peau is the fragrant hymn of the “liberated” women of the 1980s.
The essence of the woman of the 80s: Parfum de Peau de Montana
Certain scented works mark their time while remaining timeless: this is precisely the case with Parfum de Peau by the great couturier Claude Montana. We cannot talk about the heady perfumes of the 80s without mentioning Parfum de Peau, the one that marked the decade both with an assertive trail and a bottle designed as a haute couture creation.
For Claude Montana's Parfum de Peau, no detail has been overlooked: the fragrance is precisely designed to be an olfactory counterpart calibrated to an exact measure of the fashion created by Claude Montana. “This perfume is the transposition of my fashion in the most timeless form possible. I put my materials and my colors there. »Claude Montana for Parfum de Peau.
In addition, the ultra-sophisticated design of the bottle and the aesthetics of the advertisements are absolutely unstoppable assets for the success of Parfum de Peau. Indeed the communication around the perfume wants to be totally in the 80's air. The first campaign for Parfum de peau, for example, highlights the top model Chrystèle Saint-Louis Augustin in a black and white photo where the heavily made-up face takes center stage. The second campaign is totally based on chic aesthetics by putting a naked body wrapped around the perfume, aptly named, Parfum de Peau.
Parfum de Peau: an overpowering chypre-floral that has become cult
The Parfum de Peau bottle was imagined by Claude Montana and designed by the famous master of bottles Serge Mansau to represent a woman's body in motion. So the glass is turned in delicious spirals to create a woman in a bottle, the perfume would almost turn into a work of art.
Jean Guichard's wild and almost animal creation opens with very fresh notes which in no way hint at the bestial force of its wake.
The blackcurrant bud brings the sweetness of its fruit while mingling with green facets of marigold and ginger. Then pepper and cardamom spice up these top notes to prepare us for a powerful heart. The rose and the narcissus offer their floral wonders and let themselves be carried away in spicy carnations and some shadowy notes of mysterious tuberose. In depth, the animalities come out of their hiding place to offer the woman of Parfum de Peau all its character under notes of castoreum and musk launched on a sensual and addictive background of patchouli and amber.
“Created to be a fragrance that becomes one with the skin, this cult fragrance is a must-have classic in perfumery. A name, a scent, Parfum de Peau evokes such good memories ... ”Montana for Parfum de Peau.
