Style Edit: How Henry Jacques crafts luxury scents with premium natural essences and traditional craft

Steeped in these traditions, Henry Jacques, under the guidance of Anne-Lise Cremona, taps into premium natural essences sourced from all corners of the world. Only the best ingredients with the most pleasant scent profiles are selected to be added to the intricate blends meticulously curated by noses at the Henry Jacques atelier. From the most subtle to the unmistakable, notes come together in a medley that serenades the heart and the soul.

At the atelier, these precious components undergo a rigorous selection process to ensure that only the best raw ingredients are used to formulate the house’s iconic scents, such as Ambrose, Blue Vanille and Jasmine de HJ. Beyond creating the perfect blend of notes, the house also takes considerable care to ensure that each ingredient’s natural qualities, purity and aromatic depths are accurately captured and preserved. Only essences in their purest, undiluted form are blended and captured inside Henry Jacques’ artistic crystal falcons.

Exceptional care and consideration are put into crafting each and every single one of Henry Jacques’ scents. Armed with precious ingredients like the finest fresh blooms, spices and fruits, the perfumer is like an artist with a rainbow of paints on her palette or a composer with every note at his disposal. Each step of the way, the perfumer seeks to manipulate and blend ingredients to elevate their solo characteristic while harmonising the bottled fragrance.

While perfume is an olfactory experience, every blend by Henry Jacques is a symphony of delicate natural ingredients and a respect for the house’s unwavering dedication to fragrance-making traditions.

This same obsessive dedication extends to the bespoke service, where fragrance lovers can enlist the help of the maison’s nose to dream up their very own one-of-a-kind signature scent.
