An enigmatic, rich rose fragrance with liquor accents in the base. Reminiscent of Paris in the jazz era.

“A rich, jazz-age rose accord to offset homegrown, peppery geranium in A Tribute To Edith is sublime.”
HOW TO SPEND IT, FT

This enigmatic fragrance reveals its beautiful secrets: the rose is surrounded by geranium and unexpected yarrow, embellished by enveloping patchouli and liquor accents in the dry down.

Expertly crafted by their Master Perfumer in Grasse, this is a sultry and compelling fragrance, with geranium bringing a modern accent. Reminiscent of Paris in the jazz era, and a tribute to Edith Piaf’s famed song, La Vie en Rose.

Parterre rare fragrances are defined by the unique natural ingredients that they grow and distil on their botanical sustainable estate. Parterre is about creating genuinely rare perfume by working with the natural elements of the environment and the extraordinary world of plants and their botanical properties. Each year a finite number of bottles of perfume are created from each extraction, to offer a true limited edition Eau de parfum.

The top-quality rose-scented geranium oil used in A Tribute to Edith is grown and distilled at Parterre’s botanic estate. Elements of citrus and mint in the oil result in a rose scent which is rich but also contemporary and vibrant.

INGREDIENTS: Alcohol Denat, Parfum, Aqua, Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate, Ethylhexyl Salicylate, Butyl Methoxydibenzoylmethane, BHT, Benzyl Benzoate, Citral, Citronellol, Geraniol, Linalool.

FROM SEED TO BOTTLE
The key ingredients for all Parterre Fragrances are grown and distilled at Keyneston Mill. The skilled team oversee the production process from seeds and seedlings, through planting in the crop fields, to harvest and distillation. The intensity of the fragrance is achieved through care and nurturing of the plants, and picking at the optimum moment. It’s knowing what to grow and when to grow – but also when to harvest, distil and refine.

EXTRACT CREATION
The focus is on unusual ingredients, from Dorset-grown Vetiver to citrus herbs such as Bergamot Mint or Lemon Thyme. The plants are carefully nurtured on the 50-acre estate, then taken to the distillery when still fresh. Finally, they are matured, before sending to Jacques (see below) to form part of their fragrances.

PERFUME CREATION
Once the extracts are ready, they are sent to Master Perfumer, Jacques Chabert at his laboratory in Grasse, where he, his daughters and his team use their skill and artistry, incorporating the rare and unusual Parterre essential oils in their creations. Collaborating with the Parterre team, the result is outstanding, beautifully crafted fragrances. You can find out more by joining Parterre for a Workshop at Keyneston Mill.
