Since 2012, Pensee Place des Lices has never stopped surprising. A unisex fragrance from the floral family. Perfumer Mariе Duchêne left a distinct mark on this composition. Concentration — perfume extract: exactly what it needs to be.
Brand country — France, with its deep-rooted relationship with the fragrance industry. Pensee Place des Lices unfolds gradually, effortlessly, and with great refinement — a perfect choice for day or evening.
The fragrance is highly persistent and lasts on the skin for up to 8–10 hours, gradually revealing its notes and allowing you to enjoy the full bouquet throughout the day
The scent is clearly present near you, but it does not fill the entire space
The perfume has a rich aroma that will help you stand out from the crowd and create a memorable image
The most concentrated form of perfume with a deep, multifaceted composition, exceptional durability, and an expressive trail
Perfumes for the fall and winter seasons often contain notes of vanilla, spices, ambergris, wood, and other warm accords, creating a feeling of comfort and warmth during the cold months
The scent of Pensee unfolds as a layered story, where accents shift without rush and without gaps. The creative approach of Place des Lices is recognizable in details that define the fragrance identity. No excess details, only what works, and the fragrance holds its character from opening to trail. Perfume extract keeps the right density and pace of development.
From the group perspective the structure relies on Spicy, Floral, Whiteflower and Wood. The palette also extends to Aromatic. Within olfactory families the composition sits in Floral.
When the pyramid is blended into one block the opening appears as one connected movement with a warm spicy mood: Cinnamon, Clove, Hyacinth, Jasmine, Rosewood, Thyme and Violet.
The inner phases are perceived as a continuous motion from lift to depth, which preserves the scent identity through drydown.
The internal accord map is built around these accords: Aromatic, Floral, Wood and Spicy with each one in a clear role. The stylistic positioning is unisex, which makes the scent profile easier to read.
Overall Pensee sounds complete from start to finish — the opening sets direction, the central phase adds depth, and the base secures the trail. This is the type of composition best experienced on skin.
