Louis Vuitton presents its latest sensorial creation: A Perfume Atlas. The first book edited by Jacques Cavallier Belletrud, Maître Parfumeur of the Maison, offers an unprecedented look at the raw materials that inspire his fragrances.
Readers are invited to follow Belletrud through the world’s most remote places in search of exceptional ingredients. This sensorial journey is narrated by the words of Lionel Paillès, an author famous for his knowledge of fragrances, and the images of the talented illustrator Aurore de la Morinerie. Sébastien Zanella’s photographs, however, give the journey a journalistic edge.
A Perfume Atlas offers a unique insight into the work of Jacques Cavallier Belletrud, revealing to readers the secrets of the most precious raw materials and revealing the details of their harvesting, extraction, distillation and blending through over 200 watercolors.
The volume is a celebration of High Perfumery, which will delight lovers of nature, travel and beauty. Each page evokes a fascinating world: a journey across the continents and their treasures. From the May rose from Grasse to the Assam oud from Bangladesh, up to the bergamot from Calabria, each ingredient is a reminder of distant horizons rich in history.
