One of the most intricate and distinct creations is Butterfly Aoud. The inspiration for this exquisite scent came from the morning ritual followed by our Fragrance Specialist at Maison Luisant Boutique in Paris, located at 5 rue de Castiglione. Each morning, when walking into Ladurée at 14 Rue de Castiglione, the scent of freshly baked pastries being prepared for the day pours out the front door, creating a delightful experience.
This aroma of these delectable delicacies served as the inspiration to create a scent that captured this moment by blending the complexities and heritage of French Pastry tradition with the True Art of French Perfumery. Our choice was to craft an Aoud fragrance that harmoniously combines these two traditions. The outcome is Butterfly Aoud, a scent so enchanting that even Marie Antoinette would have coveted it. With its sweet top note enveloping the heart note in a Patisserie Accord, followed by the prominent presence of base notes including the finest Aoud Wood, Cardamom, Cumin, Gurjum, Cypriol, Patchouli, Cedarwood, Guaiacwood, Juniper, Amyris, Frankincense, and Labdanum, this decadent scent is both indescribable and challenging to create. It stands alone as a truly decadent experience for Aoud Lovers.
