Perfect

Perfect is an eau de parfum for women launched by Marc Jacobs in July 2020 and composed by Domitille Michalon-Bertier of IFF. Inspired by the motto “I am perfect as I am,” which the designer has tattooed on his wrist, this floral opens on rhubarb and narcissus, sets a heart of almond milk and rests on cashmeran and cedar.

Marc Jacobs unveiled Perfect in July 2020 with Coty, holder of its fragrance license. The name echoes the word the designer has tattooed on his wrist, a symbol of his motto: I am perfect as I am. The perfume celebrates optimism, self-acceptance and originality.

The house presents it as a comforting, playful and unexpected floral, nothing you would expect and everything it needs to be. Perfumer Domitille Michalon-Bertier of IFF has fresh floral notes clash with soft, soothing accords.

Perfect is sold as an eau de parfum in 30, 50 and 100 ml, with a scented body lotion and shower gel. The line has since grown to include Perfect Intense, Perfect Eau de Toilette, Perfect Elixir and Perfect Absolute.

What critics say

Jane Cunningham (British Beauty Blogger) recognizes in Perfect the soft-skin accord typical of Marc Jacobs, born of almond milk and made fruity by rhubarb, and sees it as a first fragrance for a teenager or a light spring scent.

The advertising

Perfect as we are

Juergen Teller photographs Lila Moss and a cast of 42 people, partly recruited on social media, under the direction of Katie Grand.

The launch campaign, photographed in New York by Juergen Teller under the creative direction of Katie Grand, forms a colorful collage of portraits and vignettes. Each cast member proclaims Marc Jacobs’ motto: I am perfect as I am.

Lila Moss, daughter of Kate Moss, appears alongside models Alek Wek, Akon Changkou and Mei Kawajiri, twins Margo and Madelyn Whitley, and newcomers recruited through an open call on social media.

The cast members chose and put together their own clothes, mixing Marc Jacobs collection pieces with vintage finds. For the designer, each of them embodies the idea that inspired the perfume: we are all perfect as we are.
