1740 Marquis de Sade from Histoires de Parfums is a perfume, released in 2005 and part of the Characters collection. In Russia, it is often referred to as "1740 Marquis de Sade".
The brand, founded in 2000, creates a true perfumery library where each fragrance tells a story, and this release is no exception – it embodies a bold and elegant character, inspired by an iconic figure.
This fragrance is positioned as masculine, belonging to the Oriental and Woody families.
Its prominent trail makes it ideal for evening events or moments when confidence needs to be emphasized.
As a perfume, it has good longevity: the recommended dosage is apply generously to create a cloud effect on the skin and 1 to 2 sprays on clothing for a balanced effect.
The fragrance was created by perfumer Gérald Ghislain, creative director and founder of Histoires de Parfums.
His style combines historical references with contemporary notes, and 1740 Marquis de Sade has become part of this philosophy, enhancing the brand's reputation as a master of narrative and complex compositions.
This fragrance is excellent for the autumn-winter season, romantic evenings, or occasions when an aura of mystery and strength is needed.
