L'Artisan Parfumeur
A unique visual signature based on accords, character, and seasonality
Violet leaf's peppery green volatility collides immediately with mace's warm spice, creating an almost savoury opening that belies the fruity heart to come. The pepper snaps with particular clarity, demanding attention before anything sweeter has a chance to settle.
Banana flower's creamy texture blooms into focus, its subtle coconut undertones knitting with iris's powdery, almost dusty floral presence and jasmine's dewy softness. This phase is where Bana Banana reveals its true character—a creamy, skin-like florality that feels both indulgent and oddly restraint, the fruit-floral accord achieving an almost buttery smoothness.
Tonka bean's warm caramel-dusted sweetness mingles with amber and musk into a soft, almost chalky base that lingers close to skin. The spice from the opening has largely faded, leaving only the faintest pepper-tinged memory beneath the creamy, powdery sweetness that settles into a second skin.
Bana Banana is Céline Ellena's quietly audacious rejection of fruit fragrance convention. Rather than reaching for the obvious—a juicy, candied banana note—she constructs something far more sophisticated: a floral-fruity composition where banana exists as a textural whisper rather than a shout.
The opening bristles with violet leaf's green-grey peppery bite, sharpened further by mace's spicy warmth. This isn't a soft introduction; it's a deliberate provocation that keeps the composition grounded. But within minutes, banana flower emerges—not the fruit itself, but the creamy, almost coconut-tinged florality of the bloom. It mingles with iris and jasmine in a creamy, almost skin-like embrace, creating an accord that feels both hedonistic and restrained.
