No. Our creations are inspired fragrances, not counterfeits. Each formula is developed to capture the spirit, olfactory family, and signature of the great icons of perfumery. The name, bottle, and formula are unique to Emblème.

Our extracts contain 20 to 35% perfume concentrate. This is one of the highest concentrations in perfumery.

For comparison:

• Eau de toilette: 5 to 15%
• Eau de parfum: 15 to 20%
• Extract: 20% and up

This concentration explains the intensity of our perfumes, their excellent staying power, and their olfactory richness.

Everything lies in the concentration of fragrant essences, which changes the way a perfume is worn.

The extrait is the purest and most intense form. It sits close to the skin, evolves slowly, and fully reveals its warmer, deeper base notes. Its longevity is exceptional. It is chosen for an assertive signature, for the evening, or for special occasions.

The eau de parfum is lighter and more ethereal. It diffuses more in the first few minutes, then gradually fades throughout the day. It is appreciated for everyday use, at the office, or in warm weather.

We offer both formats. You can therefore choose according to your style, the season, or the moment.

Yes, they are complimentary. We include samples in your orders, while supplies last. It’s a great opportunity to discover other creations from our collection and test them on your skin, at your own pace, before committing to a full-size bottle.

Do you have a preference? Please specify it in the "Order note" field at checkout: we will do our best to accommodate it, subject to current availability.

If you are still hesitant between several scents, our team will be happy to advise you via email, based on your tastes and the fragrances you already enjoy.

Thanks to their high concentration, our extracts last on average [8 to 12 hours] on the skin, and often more than a day on clothing or hair.

However, longevity varies depending on several factors:

• Your skin type: dry skin retains fragrance less well than hydrated skin.
• The olfactory family: woody, amber, oriental, and musky notes last longer than fresh, citrus, or aquatic notes.
• The season: heat intensifies diffusion but accelerates evaporation.

For optimal longevity, apply your perfume to clean, hydrated skin at pulse points: wrists, neck, inside of the elbows, and behind the ears. Avoid rubbing your wrists together, as this breaks down the molecules and alters the evolution of the notes.

A perfume is sensitive to three enemies: light, heat, and air. To preserve its quality:

• Store your bottle away from light, ideally in its original box or in a drawer.
• Keep it at a stable temperature, between 15 and 20°C, away from radiators and sunny windows.
• Avoid the bathroom, where humidity and temperature fluctuations accelerate its deterioration.
• Close the bottle tightly after each use to limit contact with air.

Stored this way, your perfume will retain all its freshness and intensity for several years. If you notice a change in color or scent, it is a sign that it has been exposed to light or heat.
