Launched in 2008, Féerie is a woody floral built by Antoine Maisondieu around violet, which Van Cleef & Arpels dresses in a faceted jewel bottle topped with a fairy perched on a branch. Violet leaves, blackcurrant buds and Italian mandarin open onto Bulgarian rose and Egyptian jasmine, before a base of iris, vetiver and white musks.
A faceted jewel bottle in blue glass, topped with a cap on which a mischievous fairy sits perched on her branch.
The house describes a spectacular bottle evoking a precious stone whose facets reflect light endlessly. Its cap stages a mischievous fairy perched on her branch, an interpretation of the jeweler’s magical, botanical world.
Robin, of Now Smell This, describes blue glass under a metallic-looking cap, inspired in her view by the Midsummer Night’s Dream jewelry collection. She finds the sculpture less luxurious than its price, and quotes March, of Perfume Posse, who would like it more worthy of a great jeweler.
