The Celine Zouzou fragrance is the new opus in the Haute Parfumerie collection, joining the eleven perfumes conceived by Hedi Slimane for the launch of the line. All of them are in keeping with the tradition of the “couturier parfumeur” and recapture the excellence of french haute parfumerie.

As with the other creations in the haute parfumerie collection, this perfume takes its source from Hedi Slimane’s olfactory journal, where the couturier recounts the genesis of this new opus and its name. Youth has been central to Hedi Slimane’s work, shaping their silhouette for decades through his photography and fashion designs.

In just one perfume, Zouzou distills the image of young women with the lively and sylph-like allure illustrated by the 60’s icons, characters from movies or from literature.

Zouzou brushes the portrait of these heroines and their carefree lightheartedness. This amber and musk creation awards the lead role to a balmy accord with caramel overtones. Created around benzoin and tonka bean, the fragrance is given the maison’s inimitably chic neo-classic twist. Patchouli and labdanum underline the ambery and elegant character of the accord while musk and vanilla prolong the powdery notes of the trail, a muted signature featured in all celine’s creations. As the notes unfold, the spirit of a parisian teenage girl delicately materializes.
