A tuberose fougère. That’s not something you hear about every day, but once you smell it in Fougère Emeraude, it seems like the perfect way to both highlight and steer this floral note in an interesting direction that deconstructs the gender categories a floral or a fougère would ordinarily suggest.
But if you love tuberose, don’t worry, Fougère Emeraude hands it to you in a hefty 15 percent dose, with all of its sweet creaminess and subtle green accents. No waiting in the wings for this one—it gets right down to business at first sniff. It’s supported by a Moroccan mimosa absolute, honeyed and bright, extracted at Les Indémodable’s lab from hand-selected flower buds only — no stems allowed.
Lavender and clary sage add a haunting, aromatic quality to Fougère Emeraude, along with subtle spiciness, while tonka smooths out the entire composition with its comforting facets of vanilla and cinnamon. The care with which each ingredient is sourced and extracted by Les Indémodables is evident once again in Fougère Emeraude, and by the time this rests and dries down on your skin, the subtle harmonies among the notes, thanks to perfumer Florence Fouillet Dubois, meld to create something delicious, complex, and unlike anything we’ve smelled before.
