Q&A with Givaudan Perfumer Claude Dir
What was your source of inspiration when creating this fragrance?
Although we are all familiar with the public, glamorous performer side of Celine, the inspiration for this fragrance was much more personal in exploring her more private side and her modern style that is effortlessly elegant yet simple.
How would you describe this fragrance in a few words?
Simplicity and refined glamour.
Which family does this fragrance belong to?
Sparkling Floral Woods
Which ingredients came to your mind when you thought of Celine?
The black currant at the top is uniquely sweet yet playfully in spirit and the white floral bouquet at the heart balanced with the silk musk all come together to represent the simple elegance which Celine embodies.
How this fragrance is structured, what is its olfactive signature? Could you tell us about the top, heart & base notes?
At the top, there is Sicilian bergamot, juicy black currant and mandarin zest.
The olfactive signature is the white floral bouquet at the heart. I wanted to capture the soaring sensation of freesia exactly at the moment of bloom with sparkling linden blossom and radiant white rose. It represents a modern, elegant femininity that is also glamorous, very much like the Celine on and offstage.
At the bottom, there is silk musk, white patchouli, crystal amber and sustainably-harvested Australian sandalwood bark that comes from an exclusive Givaudan partnership.
How does the fragrance express the strong personality of Celine?
There is an exciting energy and charisma right away that is like the glamorous, international star on stage but there is a soft femininity and effortless elegance which centers the fragrance.
To which kind of women is the perfume dedicated?
She is someone who is comfortable in her own skin and has an innate elegance that is simple, glamorous and personal to her.
