The Potager celebrates Jean Laporte's passion for nature and offers an enchanting visit to the heart of his Perfumer's Garden. An Eden of flowers, herbs and vegetables, where he can share his love of botany.

The Perfumers behind Le Potager, Alexandra Carlin and Quentin Bisch love to explore new olfactory horizons. Quentin Bisch is living out a childhood dream by reinventing vegetable scents: "the challenge is to dress the vegetable with a classic material to keep a part of the mystery". Alexandra Carlin, in this instance, is inspired by using technological innovations to showcase cauliflower: "Tonka Blanc is the first perfume on the market to contain a natural vegetable extract and I am very proud of it".

Le Potager is dressed in Toile de Jouy-inspired boxes. An icon of the French Art de Vivre since the 18th century, which L'Artisan Parfumeur has incorporated for the first time. Plus you have the option to choose complimentary Toile de Jouy gift wrapping at the checkout.

Beneath the elegance of the iris, the green freshness of the pea vibrates. Iris de Gris is a hymn to green in all its forms. "How many times, while shelling fresh peas, have I dreamt of this new green fragrance?" asks perfumer Quentin Bisch. A dream shaped around galbanum, whose scent evokes that of the pea.

A green accord, raised by the freshness of mint, spiked with a zest of blood orange. The iris dresses this botanic melody with a veil of elegance, while the ambroxan invites its refined imprint on the skin.
