    The story – Eau de Gloire

    It was in 2003 that Marc-Antoine Corticchiato composed Eau de Gloire, an eau de toilette paying tribute to those Corsicans who left their maquis to conquer the world. In the same vein, the perfumer is designing a more summery eau de Cologne version. Then, in the impetus of new creations, the perfumer will never present this version to the public and will forget for ten years this barrel of concentrate in a cellar …

    When he found it again in 2013, Marc-Antoine Corticchiato noticed that over the years, this cologne imagined for summer days has turned into Cologne for winter. Protected from air, heat and light, the concentrate has macerated by a mysterious alchemy like an exquisite liquor. In the crucible of time, its aromatics and resins are linked, improved, intensified; its warm accents of tobacco and leather have gained in depth. But its citrus fruits have not lost any of their sparkle.
    Magnified by the design of Jean Cocteau, it is this unique and rare “extra-old” Eau de Gloire – Cologne for winter that Parfum d’Empire offers to connoisseurs.

    With Parfum d’Empire, Marc-Antoine Corticchiato signs one of the last artisanal perfumeries. An author’s perfume, contemporary, which draws from the past and from modernity its requirement and its inventiveness.

    “With Parfum d’Empire, I wanted to reconnect with the primary meaning of perfume, the one found in all cultures: eroticism and the sacred. Because, at all times, seduction and spirituality constitute the deepest meaning of perfume, its original truth. Amorous conquest, spiritual conquest, self-conquest … perfume is conquest, perfume is exploration. To give this tradition a contemporary expression, I appeal to my own emotions, to my intuition, because nothing is more universal than the intimate … It is therefore an author’s perfume, personal and artisanal, created from of the most noble raw materials, which I want to offer. Breath of the gods, turmoil of bodies… To set out to conquer the most complex and mysterious of empires: the empire of the senses. » Marc-Antoine Corticchiato
