    The very select “Louis Vuitton Parfums” collection

    If Louis Vuitton had tried perfumery in 1927 and 1928, its fragrances had not received the hoped-for success. In 2016, the Vuitton brand decided to launch into perfumery by unveiling a unique collection highlighting noble ingredients. It is in collaboration with the nose Jacques Cavallier Belletrud that Louis Vuitton develops its 7 perfumes for 4 long years. All the names of the fragrances have a poetic name loaded with travel and imagination.

    “Against Me” is a tribute to vanilla. Jacques Cavallier, who wanted this collection to be as close as possible to nature, made a particular reflection. “But here, Jacques Cavallier Belletrud’s story was” How can we make an oriental perfume today, without a ton of caramel or praline, or be incredibly boring? ”… One of the answers was to avoid adding saccharin when opening the vanilla pods. “Against Me” is a warm fragrance that allows you to travel to the end of the world and discover a multitude of emotions.

    “Against Me” is considered a floral oriental. “Against Me” begins with a lively and citrusy freshness with the presence of bergamot and lemon. The heart is both flowery and floral, because it combines pear with rose, magnolia, and orange blossom, giving the whole a beautiful luminosity. The base is full of vanilla from Madagascar and vanilla from Tahiti.
