Les Essences Méditerranéennes from Atelier des Fleurs explore the lesser-known facets of iconic ingredients from the south of France. Inspired by the Mediterranean heritage of Gaby Aghion, founder of Chloé, this collection draws on memories of her seaside escapes, steeped in golden light and the gentle beauty of sunlit landscapes. True to the House’s philosophy, Chloé fragrances sketch a sensory portrait of the Mediterranean, far removed from postcard clichés, delicately exploring its olfactory imprint while evoking a more intimate South. An emblem of the House, sunray pleating runs throughout the Atelier des Fleurs collection. This motif of delicately crafted pleats in the fabrics brings rhythm and lightness to the olfactory world. Les Essences Méditerranéennes convey this spirit through subtle plays of light, like rays of sunlight captured in every trail.

With Vert Soleil Eau de Parfum, perfumer Quentin Bisch showcases lentisk, a rare ingredient in perfumery. This aromatic shrub, typical of the Mediterranean garrigue and maquis, thrives in the arid coastal landscape. Traditionally prized for its resinous nuances, it reveals a brighter facet, brought to life by leafy, juicy notes enhanced by the vivid brightness of green mandarin. The combination of these two vividly green ingredients creates a vibrant, vegetal freshness with a hint of spice. The composition unfolds over an enveloping base of musk and woods, bringing warmth and depth to this floral interpretation.

The bottles in Les Essences Méditerranéennes embody the timeless elegance and simplicity so dear to Chloé. Their undulating glass silhouette pays tribute to sunray pleating, while their warm green hue echoes the lush landscapes of the Mediterranean coast. The textured cap evokes sand and seals the deep connection between the House and the Mediterranean horizon. Show less
