We Sure Hope To Find Céline's Fragrance Collection In Our Christmas Stocking

Santa, we'll take a bottle (or three) - by Danielle Fowler
  • 07 Nov 2019

For anyone unsure of what to hide in our stocking this Christmas, may we offer up a suggestion: a bottle (or three) from the all-new Céline fragrance line.

Creative director, Hedi Slimane, has been shaking things up over at the French fashion house since taking to the helm last year.

Determined to loosen the fashion set's grip on their purses once more, the former head of Saint Laurent has introduced the brand's first fragrance collection since 1964 - when the brand unveiled its debut scent, Vent Fou.

The Céline Haute Parfumerie line comprises of 11 fragrances developed by Slimane himself and each unisex edition is packaged in a delightful bottle destined to be displayed on our bathroom shelf.

CELINE HAUTE PARFUMERIE BOUTIQUE LES NUANCES D'AMBRE ET D'OR SE REFLÈTENT À L'INFINI DANS L'ORGUE À PARFUM. THE AMBER-GOLD NUANCES REFLECT TO INFINITY WITHIN THE PERFUMER ORGAN. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 390, RUE SAINT-HONORÉ, PARIS NOW OPEN ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #CELINEHAUTEPARFUMERIE #CELINEBYHEDISLIMANE

Retelling his childhood through the art of scent, each perfume is named after an experience plucked from the designer's past with names including 'Black Tie', 'Reptile' and 'Parade' plastered across the bottles.

The gloriously named 'Nightclubbing' for instance, boasts an amber hue and is "fed by the memory of Parisian nights" - evoking memories from many a night spent at the capital's Le Palace.

While 'Eau de Californie' boasts delicate notes of bergamot, tree moss and patchouli in tribute to the US state where Slimane lived for more than a decade.

"This Haute Parfumerie collection is probably the most intimate and personal part of my overall creative project at Céline. I had the desire to approach the romantic myth of eternal youth in an olfactory way. How to express the idea of being 17-years-old, the realm of possibilities, teenage subtle fragility, but also the spleen?"  Slimane told Wall Street Journal.

"Working on this perfume, I had to recognise the emotions I felt growing up to adulthood."

The collection is now available to shop online and at the luxury label's first perfume boutique in Paris with prices starting at $320 per bottle.

Hands up, who else fancies a last-minute European getaway?
