Composed by hand in Grasse

Sillage

The scent you leave in a room after you have gone.

The house

We do not sell perfume. We bottle the moment you become unforgettable.

Every Sillage is composed slowly, in small hands, in the old way — macerated for months, aged like wine, poured one flacon at a time. Noé Vasseur works from a single room above the rue des Fleurs, where the light is low and the windows stay open to Grasse. You will not find us on a shelf. You will find us, later, on the people who passed you.

I am not interested in how a perfume opens. I am interested in what it leaves.

The architecture

How a trail is built

A scent is read from the top down and remembered from the base up. Move through the three movements.

01 / 03
Top
The first breath
What greets you, and what leaves first.
  • Pink pepper
  • Bergamot peel
  • Cold petrol
  • Crushed mint
02 / 03
Heart
The hours that hold
The body of the thing — where you live for an afternoon.
  • Smoked rose
  • Iris butter
  • Carbon orris
  • Bitter neroli
03 / 03
Base
The memory
What stays on the collar of a coat for days.
  • Aged ambergris
  • Vétiver ash
  • Labdanum
  • Skin musk
Three temperaments

Choose your weather

Every composition belongs to one of three moods. Find the one you already are.

01
Resin
The dark warm one
Amber, labdanum, smoke. For low light and late conversation.
02
Citrus Smoke
The bright sharp one
Bergamot drawn through char. Cold mornings, clean intent.
03
White Musk
The quiet near one
Skin, iris, the suggestion of linen. Worn so close it reads as you.

Said quietly

In other words

BRÛME
You will not notice it on yourself. Everyone else will.
Maison Review
ROSE CARBON
A rose that has seen things. I have worn nothing else since.
L. Ferrand, Paris
VÉTIVER NOIR
It smells like a room I am trying to remember.
The Edit
AMBRE LENTE
Worth the wait, the price, and the three-month list.
Olfact Journal
IRIS VOILÉ
Intimacy, bottled. Almost embarrassing how close it sits.
Note & Trail
NÉROLI FROID
Cold and clean and a little dangerous. I am obsessed.
C. Hale, London
