Eau de parfum 901: nutmeg, almond and patchouli
- Description

- Shipping
A shot of ginger awakens the first citrus notes of mandarin and grapefruit. The warmth of spices emerges and sets the heart notes alight. Black pepper, chili and nutmeg form a fearless trio! Almond then reveals its softness and marks the transition toward sweet vanilla facets. Tonka bean, patchouli and musk scent the skin with their tremendously sensual aromas. A trail with an assertive character.
What does ginger smell like?
Fiery ginger presents a surprising duality that runs hot and cold. It releases intensely fresh and peppery facets with accents of rose. Now you know why it has a devilish reputation! It is said that Louis XV used this ingredient as an aphrodisiac. He would regularly scent the places he met his sweetheart (Madame du Barry) with the spice and she fell for his charms thanks to its aroma. A feminine and masculine note, it refreshes top notes and warms the heart of creations. Its bright and energizing character pairs very well with citrus, oriental and woody notes. Ginger rhizomes are grown in China, Japan, Jamaica and Africa, and their essence is extracted by steam distillation or CO2 extraction.
How to recognize nutmeg ?
This Indonesian treasure with spicy, dry, warm, aromatic and camphoric accents adds depth and an earthy leathery dimension. Its spellbinding olfactory complexity fascinates perfumers. It is said that the streets of Rome were scented with nutmeg for the coronation of Emperor Henry VI in 1190. The nuts are protected by a membrane called mace. It therefore yields two essences – mace and nutmeg – which smell different to one another. Only unsellable or broken nuts are distilled as the best specimens are destined for use in cooking.
What does almond smell like?
Almond essential oil isn’t used in perfumery. Fragrances recreate the notes of almond using tonka bean, heliotrope, vanilla and others. Almond is floral, vanillalike, balmy and sweet. By adapting the different facets of the accord, the almond can be made more or less green and given dimensions of cherry, frangipani, orgeat syrup or calissons. It propels “balsamic” notes, also known as vanilla notes, and offers delicate powdery facets.
Mix & Match:
Become your very own perfumer by mixing two fragrances together. Strike the right balance for a result that is just as unique as you are. 303 and 901 make a marvelous combination and reveal deeply woodier notes.
How to use it:
Spritz on pulse points like wrists, neck, behind ears, and inner elbows to make your fragrance last longer.

A keen traveler at heart, Corinne developed a passion for perfumery as a result of the delicious scents she has come across everywhere from France to the West Indies. She joined Florasynth, followed by Créations Aromatiques, and has now worked with Drom fragrances for over 20 years. She is influenced by the vibrant beauty of spices, the energy of citrus fruits, and the reassurance of balsamic notes. She draws on her personal experiences to bring her fragrances to life but her greatest muse is nature, a source of endless treasures and a reflection of power and serenity. She is also a devoted rugby fan and loves the jovial atmosphere and community spirit of matches. It is the perfect expression of beauty in strength. What she likes about Bon Parfumeur is its Mix & Match combinations. Corinne believes that everyone should be able to build their own scent identity by layering fragrances. For her, a Bon Parfumeur knows how to integrate their own sensitivity to develop a fragrance that people identify with.
