The Perfumers behind Le Potager, Alexandra Carlin and Quentin Bisch love to explore new olfactory horizons. Quentin Bisch is living out a childhood dream by reinventing vegetable scents: "the challenge is to dress the vegetable with a classic material to keep a part of the mystery". Alexandra Carlin, in this instance, is inspired by using technological innovations to showcase cauliflower: "Tonka Blanc is the first perfume on the market to contain a natural vegetable extract and I am very proud of it".

Le Potager is dressed in Toile de Jouy-inspired boxes. An icon of the French Art de Vivre since the 18th century, which L'Artisan Parfumeur has incorporated for the first time. Plus you have the option to choose complimentary Toile de Jouy gift wrapping at the checkout.

A surprising duo of musk and beetroot, gently refreshed with a touch of bergamot. Straight from Quentin Bisch's childhood, Musc Amarante makes beetroot the centrepiece. The vegetable fascinating the perfumer "as much by its deep purple colour as by its mysterious smell of earth and ambergris...".

Beneath the freshness of citrus fruits, a beetroot with a humus scent is revealed. An accord twisted with the spicy breath of pink pepper, held closely with silky musk and ambrette. Vetiver and ambergris anchor the dark and mysterious element of Musc Amarante on the skin.
