Fragrance information:

My Life Parfums Grès Paris, released in 2007, sits firmly in the category of a feminine fragrance, drawing from the chypre family. Perfumer Marie Salamagne left a distinct mark on this composition. The fragrance belongs to the drinks, wood, and floral groups. The palette of this fragrance is exceptionally rich: traces of whiteflower and balsamic can also be found — a rare combination that makes this perfume truly one of a kind. Created within the Hommage a Marlène Dietrich collection and available in eau de parfum.

It has a delicate sillage, staying close and personal. For skin application, 1-2 sprays is the sweet spot. A subtle fragrance: the longevity is low, which suits its gentle character. France is where this fragrance comes from — and it shows. My Life Parfums Grès Paris — the choice of those who appreciate depth and character in every detail.

Key fragrance characteristics

Perfume information

Description of the composition

The note pyramid of My Life unfolds as a cohesive olfactory arc, where notes flow without rush and without gaps. The style of Parfums Grès Paris is evident from the opening to the final trail. Every decision feels deliberate, and the structure feels complete all the way through. Eau de parfum keeps the right density and pace of development.

At olfactory-group level the profile is anchored in Balsamic, Drinks, Floral and Whiteflower. The palette also extends to Wood. At family level the scent maps to Chypre.

Right at the start you sense airy floral opening notes: Orange blossom, Rum and Wisteria.

In the middle phase you notice Cedar, Heliotrope and Jasmine keeping a spicy-woody direction.

The accord architecture is shaped by these accords: Balsamic, Gourmet, Floral and Wood forming a compact and readable structure. Background accords such as Alcoholic expand the olfactory volume in the background. The profile is feminine, which clarifies the composition character. In longevity terms Low points to a sustained drydown presence.

Taken together My Life reads as a cohesive composition — the opening sets direction, the middle layer carries the identity, while the drydown anchors the memory. These are the fragrances best judged in wear.

Persistence
The persistence of a fragrance is determined by how long it can be felt. It is a characteristic associated with ingredients that evaporate slowly. Persistence depends on the physical properties of the perfume ingredients—mainly their volatility and environmental factors such as temperature and humidity.
Persistence
Low (1 to 2 hours)
2
Sillage
Imagine a light cloud of fragrance that, like an aeroplane trail, remains in the air after your appearance. This is the sillage - a subtle or vivid imprint left by the most diffuse element of a perfume composition. The sillage can be almost invisible when it is felt only by you and those around you. Or it can be so expressive that its presence is noticed even long after you have left.
Sillage
Imperceptible
2
Complexity and depth
The complexity of a fragrance is the number and variety of notes that create a unique composition. A complex fragrance contains many different notes that reveal themselves on the skin. The depth of a fragrance is the richness and intensity of the fragrance. Fragrances with a deep composition include heavy and powerful notes that stay on the skin longer and affect others over long distances.
