What are the benefits of perfume?



The captivating history of perfume dates back millennia, transporting mankind to a world of bewitching aromas and exquisite sensations. Since ancient times, men and women have sought to capture nature's fragrant essences and wear them on their skin, leaving behind a trail of mystery and seduction. Perfume, with its evocative power, has become a form of artistic expression, an invitation to an olfactory journey.

Perfume is much more than just a pleasant fragrance. It embodies elegance, individuality and creativity. It has the power to stimulate our senses, evoke memories and influence our mood. From soft, delicate floral notes to woody, spicy accords and gourmand fruity notes, each fragrance tells a unique, personal story.

Over time, the perfume industry has evolved, fusing tradition, innovation and eco-responsibility. Eco-responsible perfume was born. Talented perfumers relentlessly explore new ingredients, creating innovative olfactory compositions that reflect society's trends. Ingredients are meticulously sourced, produced as locally as possible. Attention is paid to the container, often made of recycled glass or refillable. Perfume has become a must-have fashion accessory, and buying a perfume means buying an olfactory signature that complements our style and personality.

Refreshing and essential to our outfits as well as our bodies, perfume is the guarantor of well-being and emotional balance.

L'Exception presents here its selection of eco-responsible perfumes that favor natural ingredients.

1. Obvious



In search of a new olfactory elegance, David Frossard, founder of the Obvisous house, has imagined a brand of eco-responsible luxury perfumes made in France, responding to the demands of our modern age by combining simplicity and elegance, while respecting both oneself and nature..

In this quest for a nature-friendly approach, Obvious pays particular attention to every aspect of its products, including their packaging. Conscious of the importance of sustainability, the brand has chosen a bottle made from recycled and recyclable glass, as well as a cap made from agglomerated cork from wine cork production offcuts (with no plastic insert). It uses only recyclable paper for its boxes. This decision is part of a global initiative to reduce the perfume industry's ecological footprint.

When it comes to olfactory compositions, Obvious creates fragrances with an emphasis on the use of raw materials of natural origin, grown responsibly. The fragrances are made with organic alcohol, guaranteeing production that is more respectful of the environment. Even the bottle has been designed with eco-responsibility in mind, made from recycled and recyclable glass, with a cork stopper derived from wine cork offcuts.

This committed approach is also reflected in Obvious' pricing policy. The brand is careful to calculate its prices fairly, enabling it to support all its suppliers committed to sustainable practices. In this way, consumers who choose Obvious fragrances actively contribute to the promotion of a development model that respects nature.

Obvious embodies a new mode of eco-responsible manufacturing that is invading the perfume industry, offering fragrance lovers an elegant and conscious alternative, where every aspect of its products is thought out with respect for the planet and individuals.

Choose "Une Rose" eau de parfum, for example. Its surprisingly fresh, sweet fragrance will sublimate your senses, thanks to top notes of grapefruit and mandarin orange, heart notes of Bulgarian rose and, finally, astonishing base notes of Indian pink pepper.





2. Bon Parfumeur



Launched in 2014 by Ludovic Bonneton, Bon Parfumeur is a French brand committed to offering unisex fragrances with natural ingredients. Bon Parfumeur redefines the way people scent themselves and offers a fragrance for every craving.

For BON PARFUMEUR, perfume is a pleasure to share, both poetic and concrete. The emotions to be aroused are essential and universal.

Succumb to the scent of eau de parfum 103. 103 opens with luminous, fresh top notes of bergamot. The heart reveals a more floral character with jasmine, a gardenia note and heliotropine. The woody base reveals a milky vanilla trail, combined with sunny nuances of tiare flower.
