L’Invitation au Voyage is a fragrance of exploration. The end of the day; bathed in sunset. The sound of waves. Shades of pink and orange. All this is the landscape that unfolds, in a dance of the elements that invites us to set sail for a far-off land, driven by the rhythm of the wind. L’Invitation au Voyage tells a tale of setting out on a voyage of discovery; the fourth act in the wonderful world of Les Colognes Sublimes.

L’Invitation au Voyage is an adventure. Freshness and voluptuousness meet in a cologne that echoes the House perfumer’s explorations, combining the freshness of violet with the mellow sweetness of cinnamon. First, come essences of mandarin and bergamot; sparkling and juicy. Then, the herbal notes of violet leaf, in a blend lightly spiced with a hint of cardamom. Gradually, the floral heart of orange blossom absolute and essence of geranium is warmed by cinnamon. Supported by the elegance of cedar and Guaiac woods, the amber scents of labdanum resin give this fragrance confident appeal.

Although very fragrant, violet flower is known as one of the “mute” flowers, meaning no perfume can be extracted from them. Instead, the leaves are used in perfumery, producing an absolute that brings a green, vegetal note which evokes undergrowth after rain.

“In the wonderful world of Colognes Sublimes, time flies. And it can stop, in a moment, plunging you into a new reality. A marvellous beach is transformed into a playground, becoming a space for explorations, dreams, and possibilities of all kinds. A magnificent sandcastle rises against the blue of the sea. A summer escape tinged with fantasy and exuberance, where colours echo a poetic escapade.

A dreamlike exploration set to a background of fragrance, from the early hours of the morning until the stroke of midnight. Waking up on the beach at sunrise with L’invisible qui Luit. Late morning, a feeling of plenitude with Champ Bleu du Ciel. Reawakening the child in you as the sun hits its zenith, with Ivre de Liberté. As the day draws to a close, exploring new horizons with L’Invitation au Voyage. And finally, when the sun has given way to the moon, taking an evening stroll with L’Heure Vagabonde. A collection of five bold scents that resonates in a wonderfully utopian setting.”
