Maison Crivelli: The Art of Olfactory Contrast
The House Philosophy
Concept: Experiential perfumery (Slow Perfume)
Approach: Synaesthetic and sensory
Vision: The clash of contrasts and the beauty of the living world
Founder: Thibaud Crivelli
Hallmarks of the House
Artistic Direction: Thibaud Crivelli draws on real memories — moments lived during his botanical explorations — to create compositions that upend convention.
Master Perfumers: Prestigious collaborations with the greatest contemporary noses (Quentin Bisch, Jordi Fernández, Nathalie Feisthauer, Bertrand Duchaufour).
Exceptional Quality: Use of ORPUR®-certified natural ingredients (Givaudan’s high-quality label), guaranteeing exemplary purity and traceability.
Aesthetics: Bottles of pure design, hand-struck metal caps and textured cases, reflecting a modern, raw and authentic luxury.
The Collections
The Eaux de Parfum: Vibrant explorations centred on a raw material transformed by a memory (e.g. a rose by the sea, an iris in the heart of a desert).
The Extraits de Parfum: A high-intensity collection with a record concentration of 32%. These creations offer unrivalled olfactory power and resonance, turning each fragrance into an imperial signature.
Distinctiveness, Ingredients and Commitments
Distinctiveness: Each fragrance is an interpretation of a sensory contrast. The house refuses artificial colourants: the colour of the juice is that of the essential oils that compose it, evolving naturally over time.
Ingredients: Phthalate-free formulations. Orpur-grade natural ingredients (Indonesian patchouli, Damask rose, Australian sandalwood).
Eco-responsibility: Cellophane-free packaging, FSC-certified paper, a commitment to the sustainable production of vanilla and patchouli.
Distinction: The house has won several international awards for its olfactory innovation.
“The discovery of a fragrance is a human adventure, a moment of total surprise that should shake us.”
Thibaud Crivelli
Maison Crivelli does not merely create fragrances; it captures moments of life transformed by the imagination. Built on an approach of “beauty in motion,” the house distinguishes itself through its ability to marry elements that, on paper, oppose one another. It is in this mastered imbalance that the Crivelli magic is born: a rose that turns salty, a hibiscus that becomes leathery, or an oud wood that meets the vivacity of an exotic fruit.
The house quickly established itself in the landscape of niche perfumery through its transparency and technical rigour. Working with the greatest noses, Thibaud Crivelli breathes a raw modernity into his compositions. Each bottle is an invitation to slow down, to feel the textures and to let oneself be carried by an olfactory narrative where nature is elevated by human daring.
