Le Vainqueur




«Dall'Alpi alle Piramidi, dal Manzanarre al Reno, 
di quel securo il fulmine tenea dietro al baleno» 


«From the Alps unto the Pyramids, From Manzanares to Rhine, 
Unfailingly the thunderstroke his lightning purpose carries»
 
[Alessandro Manzoni, 1785-1873] 


The irresistible scents of the sea and the reassuring deepness of woods enhance the winning spirit which lays in every man’s heart. François Rancé created these notes for Napoleon, the bravest of conquerors.


The bottle is an obelisk, which embodies the concept of Victory itself. This enormous monolith has been dedicated only to the greatest historical personalities over the millennia. The obelisk bottle is capped with the crown bearing the imperial eagle that is placed on the heads of victors.



Le Vainqueur: At Full Gallop Into The Wind

A little-known side of the most celebrated winner of history. 

 

The sentimental journey to an island shaped by the winds, which fiercely blow along the Strait of Bonifacio. Paying homage to the landscapes of Corsica, homeland to Napoleon, these Mediterranean scents melt in a fresh and aromatic bouquet, which appeals to men’s soul.

 

Distilled in 1805 for Bonaparte, Le Vainqueur comes back as a bright portrait of the wild atmospheres of Corsica. In the balance between France and Italy, the island’s nature blooms among the scented gusts of Libeccio, Sirocco and Mistral.

 

Drawing an imaginary windrose, Le Vainqueur is inspired by steep cliffs and horse rides along endless seashores or arduous green trails. Within the bouquet, scents of sea and aromatic woods.



Le Vainqueur Eau De Parfum: Mediterranean Atmospheres

The fragrance, which draws inspiration from Mediterranean landscapes and Corsican cliffs swept by the winds, is opened by a bright fresh note.

 

Extracts of bergamot and lemon zests, mixed with a gentle sea breeze, introduce a refined heart of lavender and ginger, whose aromatic verve is enhanced by the precious geranium.

 

In the base a subtle blend of wood and leather, enriched by the entrancing musk, highlights the strong and manly personality of the perfume.

 

The words of Manzoni are a perfect frame for this sparkling fragrance. Discover the hidden lines written within the perfume box!
