Shalimar: the history of the first amber fragrance

French niche house Hauts Les Rêves is a hymn to nature, inspiration, and reverent care for every flower. The name translates to "Upwards, Dreams" and immediately sets a romantic, airy tone. The brand was born from a love of Provençal gardens and a desire to capture moments of happiness in scents. Unlike many luxury brands, Hauts Les Rêves focuses on purity of sound: minimal synthetics, maximum natural extracts and absolutes. Each bottle becomes a small work of art, where perfumery meets botanical poetry.
All compositions are created by the talented nose Anne-Sophie Behaghel. She is known for her ability to work with delicate floral and green accords, avoiding harsh synthetic notes. Anne-Sophie's portfolio includes collaborations with leading perfume houses, but it is in Hauts Les Rêves that her style has truly blossomed. The perfumer prefers monothematic compositions that do not overwhelm the senses, allowing one to enjoy a single main accent—whether it be an orange tree in bloom or delicate mimosa.
The brand's main treasure is the "Sous…" collection dedicated to individual plants. The fragrance Hauts Les Rêves - Sous l'Oranger is pure delight: sweet, sunny, with honeyed nuances of orange blossoms and fresh green leaves. It sounds like a morning in a citrus garden and is ideal for the spring-summer season. The second hit is Hauts Les Rêves - Sous le Mimosa. Here, Anne-Sophie captured the fragile beauty of mimosa: powdery, slightly spicy, with violet undertones and a subtle woody trail. Both fragrances receive enthusiastic reviews for their naturalness and remarkable longevity given such a natural composition.
The brand is chosen by those who value uniqueness and sustainability. All bottles are made of recyclable glass, and the boxes are made of certified paper. The scents are not loud but leave a long trail that you want to inhale again and again. Additionally, Hauts Les Rêves actively collaborates with perfume boutiques around the world while remaining independent and intimate. If you are looking for something special—not mass-market, but personal—look into this house. And if you are unsure, start with "Sous l'Oranger": it has become the brand's calling card and receives only positive reviews.
Hauts Les Rêves proves that true perfumery can be as transparent as morning dew, yet filled with deep emotions. It is an ideal choice for romantic souls who want to surround themselves with the true poetry of nature.
