The famous Olympia Music Hall, located in the heart of Paris, was built by Bruno Coquatrix and went on to become instrumental in shaping the careers of the illustrious artists that walked its stage. Edith Piaf, The Beatles, David Bowie; the hall has played host to countless musicians and artists, and Histoires de Parfums have sought to capture the inimitable atmosphere of the historic venue with this scintillating scent; Histoires de Parfums - Olympia, Music Hall. Bold and vibrant on the opening thanks to a trifecta of premium citruses, the fragrance takes on a spicy character from saffron and black pepper in the heart before coming to rest against a backdrop of evocative incense and patchouli.

Fragrance House
Histoires de Parfums is not what one might think, ’Histories’ of perfume, ‘Histoires’ translates as the ‘Stories' of Perfumes. That is what this range is all about; the stories. Histoires de Parfums is an olfactory library, a set of volumes telling the tales of famous characters in terms of fragrance rather than words. Histoires de Parfums is the brainchild of Gérald Ghislain, the ‘author’ – as he describes himself – who by employing his abundant imagination was able to bring his cast of characters alive, allowing them to jump out of the bottle rather than off the page, the measure of a great writer. Like all perfume houses selected by Roullier White, Histoires de Parfums maintains uses only the finest raw materials and good quality, heavyweight bottles, beautifully boxed. Born in the South of France and brought up in Morocco Gérald Ghislain, a graduate of the Institut Supérieur International du Parfum, grew up surrounded by exotic scents and with a Mediterranean passion for all that is good in life. This passion is evident in each of Ghislain’s Histoires de Parfums creations; each one is a work of art.
