"Nuit de Megève" takes inspiration from Albert Fouquet’s travels to the exclusive ski resort of Megève in the 1930’s, not long after it was developed as a high society alternative to Saint-Moritz.
It is an ode to a magical evening of laughter, fireside conversation and dancing that Fouquet enjoyed with the elegant and strikingly beautiful Annicke, with whom he got along tremendously well. He wanted to hold on to every memory and knew that the best way was by creating a fragrance that would transform that Megève magic, the mountain air, the wood smoke in the fireplace and the party ambience, into an exquisite aroma.
Bright bergamot and warm nutmeg open the composition, blending seamlessly with a heart of tonka bean, clove buds, and violet. A lingering base of Ambrostar, cedarwood, and amber evokes the timeless elegance, quiet glamour, and subtle magic of a night in a majestic mountain retreat.
