VELOURS BOISÉ BY JACQUES FATH PARFUMS
Jacques Fath was born in France in 1912. Fascinated by fashion since his early years, the young designer opens his first Couture house in Paris in 1937. His unique and glamorous style brings him immediate success. Known for dressing the “young Chic Parisian “, Jacques Fath attracts well-known and wealthy clients. Hubert de Givenchy, Guy Laroche and Valentino Garavani – all worked as assistants in his atelier and later would form their own Fashion Houses. The perfumes’ saga begins with the launch of Chasuble in 1945. Later with the creation of Iris Gris and Green Water in collaboration with perfumer Vincent Roubert, Jacques Fath Perfumes become legend.

EXCLUSIVE NOTE FROM PERFUMER LUCA MAFFEI
As a special gift for you, perfumer Luca Maffei added an extra note to listen to while you experience the perfume for a multi-sensory experience.
A rich and warm fragrance, a creation like a soft embrace
The name Velours Boisé (woody velvet in English) evokes this unique fabric with sensual touch Jacques Fath frequently used to sublimate his evening gowns. It also evokes the winter season, this particular warm and friendly atmosphere. A voluptuous New Caledonia Sandalwood (extremely warm, sweet, with a rich woody aroma) gives the structure to the fragrance. The opening is therefore spicy, rich dry with Davana, Mate and bright with Bergamot notes. It then delicately blends in the heart in a warm and aromatic combination of Whisky C0² and Immortelle. In the dry-down, enveloping Armenian and Guaiac add a smoky touch.
OLFACTORY PYRAMID
BEHIND THE SCENT
Luca Maffei is considered one of the most important young creators of Italian perfumes. Recently awarded in Los Angeles with the prestigious international recognition “The Art and Ol- faction Awards” in the Independent category, during his career he has designed over twenty creations for Italian and international brands such as Perris Monte Carlo, JUL ET MAD, Car- thusia. In contact with the world of essences since his childhood, he was “immediately overwhelmed by the charm of the ingredients and the mysterious alchemy with which they combine” and he decided he wanted to learn more about this unique and wonderful world.
For Luca, the direction was different: to no longer rely on a classic pillar of the brand but to draw from a rich and varied olfactory panel, the most innovative and noble raw materials to create four feminine lines: Rosso Epicuro, L’Orée du Bois, Les Frivolités, Lilas Exquis – and also pay tribute to Jacques Fath’s ” joie de vivre”.
