Nuovo prodotto / Casa - 4/23/19
Louis Vuitton introduces the deluxe addition of the scented candles L’Air du Jardin, Île Blanche, Feuilles d’Or et Dehors Il Neige, created by Master Perfumer Jacques Cavallier Belletrud. Nestled in daring ceramic containers designed by Marc Newson, these 1,1kg candles travel easily from one room to the next thanks to a handle in hand-stitched natural leather, anchored by a metal rivet. Crafted in Louis Vuitton’s workshops, the natural leather handle, an emblematic signature of the Maison, gives the candle its pure, nomadic character.
An emblematic signature of the Maison, the natural leather handle is crafted in Louis Vuitton’s workshops and gives the candle its pure, nomadic character.
Over time, delicate natural leather acquires suppleness and a unique amber patina.
To embark on an olfactory journey, one can remove the gold-finished metal lid and place it underneath the candle, as a base. Discovering the fragrant wax with a colourful detail: four wicks, hand painted by an artisan wax maker in Grasse, France.
L’Air du Jardin
Based in Grasse, Jacques Cavallier Belletrud imagines and composes each of his fragrances in his perfume laboratory at Les Fontaines Parfumées. In spring, when rose centifolia is finally ready for harvesting, its vaporous scent fills the air all around the Provençal estate.
It slips into every rocky crevice with a singular softness. Jacques Cavallier Belletrud creates an ode to this May rose by casting it in an impressionistic light. Though the rose is one of the raw materials that can seem flattened when concentratedn in wax, here it appears without artifice, transparent and ethereal. The technical prowess behind this exercise: succeeding in simulating the weightlessness of this floral scent.
This fragrance speaks of renewal and eternal refinement.
Île Blanche
Veils of white cotton whisper upon contact with the breeze. A murmur punctuates the afternoon siesta. Outside, the blues of the ocean and the sky strike the eye.
The heat from the sun is too hot; better to take refuge in the shadow of chalk walls and watch as boats depart the shore in the far horizon. Île Blanche is an imaginary island, an archipelago of indigo and freshness, ocean spray and luminous rays. Jacques Cavallier Belletrud chose a fresh tea note to embody the contrast between the extreme purity of water and the incandescent sun. He also amalgamated a maté accord with orange, jasmine sambac from China, essence of neroli and cardamom. All the virtuosity of flowers are plunged into a bath of citronella and vervain. In just seconds, one feels calm, as if secluded on an island, with everyday cares thousands of miles away. A perfume that creates the impression of space and boundlessness.
Feuilles d’Or
Sometimes, it takes nothing more than a walk in the woods to feel energy running through your veins. Treading over hundred-year-old roots blanketed in crisp leaves, one senses the absent space needed to hoist dreams upwards. Inspired by the scent of flamboyant
forests, where the exhalations of moist earth fuses with those of leaves and wood, Jacques Cavallier Belletrud pays homage to Indonesian patchouli. He offers a literal expression of the scent, softening it with the essence of Virginia cedar. A majestic forest takes root in the home. A sumptuous, vertiginous wood like those found in Asia.
The essence of patchouli combusting brings a mystical depth. Subtle facets of incense, geranium, and Peruvian balsam wend their way into this imaginary forest. One feels enveloped by a sensation of security and ultimate comfort. A concentrate of pure force.
Dehors Il Neige
Flames crackle in the fireplace. Beyond the frosted windowpanes, snow flurries. The horizon blurs into immaculate white. Earth merges with sky. This hypnotic white screen lures all generations’ fascinated by the enveloping silence. Master Perfumer Jacques Cavallier Belletrud concentrates on the magic of snowfall during the year’s waning days. He sets the scene in a comfortable, reassuring mountain chalet that juxtaposes frosted metal with a lush green majestic pine forest. Dehors Il Neige explores the soft sensations of altitude: an infusion of star anise and cinnamon evokes gingerbread and December’s festive notes, while incense embodies the swaddling softness of a cashmere blanket. Then, contrasting this inner warmth, Jacques Cavallier Belletrud ushers in tumultuous metallic aldehydes — purity piercing white, cleanliness and clarity. A frisson reconciled by a final note of raspberry
