Alaïa Paris

It proves as airy as it is animalic, making the woman who wears it an absolutely tempting being whom it is almost impossible to resist. So, will you be one of those who let yourself be tempted by its couture bottle?

A major fragrance from the Azzedine Alaïa house

Although the Azzedine Alaïa house has today made a name for itself in perfumery, it must be acknowledged that the perfume Alaïa Paris holds a very particular importance for it. Indeed, this is the house's very first juice. It was launched in 2015 after a long wait by fans of the house. This juice was developed in collaboration with the Italian Carla Sozzani, another major name in the fashion world. The idea was to further enhance the image of women dressed in Azzedine Alaïa's sublime garments. All that was missing to complete their outfit was an invisible adornment reflecting their natural charm. Furthermore, it should be noted that Azzedine Alaïa is a perfectionist at heart. He notably confided that he learned rigor during his studies at an art school. It is precisely this acute sense of harmony that is found in the perfume Alaïa Paris. It is both bold while remaining close to the house's fashion world. Thus, it appears as a perfectly orchestrated link between these two worlds.

The ever-present contrasts of Alaïa Paris

Alaïa Paris is a juice of a thousand contrasts. Indeed, it appears as mysterious as it is luminous. It opens with a fresh, airy impression emanating from its top notes. Nevertheless, this invigorating facet also proves particularly sharp thanks to the presence of pink pepper. Then, Alaïa Paris immediately develops toward a more floral heart composed of peony and freesia. However, make no mistake, Alaïa Paris is far from embodying an overly demure woman. Like Azzedine Alaïa's couture, it proves animalic and sensual. This is precisely what emanates from this perfume's sillage. It is notably composed of animalic notes and musk. The whole is held in a bottle of great beauty. It is a nod to the house's couture world. Moreover, its cap resembles a spool of gold thread. The rest of the bottle, meanwhile, is lacquered in black, a nod to the leather so cherished by Azzedine Alaïa. The designer liked to say that his perfume is not reasonable, it makes time lie. […] It accompanies time, it has the insolence of an eternal present.
