A subtle trail—just a hint of fragrance
The perfume has a fresh scent that is not too intense, so it does not overwhelm those around you with strong essences
A light and elegant fragrance with harmonious richness—the perfect balance between the depth of eau de parfum and the freshness of cologne
Fragrances for spring and summer unfold with light citrus notes, floral and fruity accords, filling the composition with freshness, airiness, and a feeling of carefree lightness on warm days
The scent of Couleurs evolves as a living composition, where accents shift smoothly and sequentially. The signature of Aubusson is recognizable in the way notes appear and fade. Every decision feels deliberate, and the fragrance holds its character from opening to trail. Eau de toilette emphasizes a balanced rhythm of unfolding.
At olfactory-group level the profile is anchored in Whiteflower, Fruit, Wood and Gourmet. It also reaches into Floral. From a family perspective the composition sits in East and Floral.
When the pyramid is blended into one block the opening appears as one connected movement with a pulsating fruity mood: Jasmine, Peach, Pear and Sandalwood.
The inner phases are perceived as a gradual shift without abrupt breaks, which preserves the scent identity through drydown.
The olfactory framework is driven by these accords: Floral, Fruit and Wood without random overlap. The profile is feminine, which clarifies the composition character. In wear duration High points to a sustained drydown presence.
In summary Couleurs holds a coherent structure — the first stage creates momentum, the middle layer carries the identity, while the drydown anchors the memory. These are the fragrances best judged on skin.
