Granville

Description

Granville opens with the fresh, aromatic notes of lemon, thyme and rosemary. At the heart, the fragrance goes resinous with an alliance of pine absolute and gorse blossoms. The woody-spicy-smoky base reveals a blend of black pepper and sandalwood. Perfumer: François Demachy

Nostalgic Granville

History

Lively, green and aromatic, Granville is part of Dior’s Couturier Parfumeur Collection. This series of fragrances, intended for connoisseurs of fine essences, was created by François Demachy, the House of Dior’s perfumer-designer. Each of the creations in the collection was inspired by different moments in the history of the House of Dior, like a tribute to the fashion designer and his most important encounters. Granville is redolent with the scents of Villa Les Rhumbs, the designer’s childhood home in Normandy, where the scents borne by the English Channel intertwined with that of pine trees. François Demachy wanted an airy fragrance that would be reminiscent of the scent Christian Dior breathed in each morning when he opened his windows.
