FERSEN

Fersen is the eau de parfum created by Les Folies Du Parfum, launched in 2024: a unisex aromatic aquatic dedicated to Baron Jacques d'Adelswärd-Fersen, a refined and mysterious figure linked to Villa Lysis, on the cliffs of Capri.

The Fragrance

Fersen tells the story of a villa more than a man — or rather, tells the man's story through the villa he inhabited. Villa Lysis, wrapped in an aura of beauty and mystery, becomes the starting point for a fragrance that opens fresh like the sea breeze of Capri and slowly warms toward richer, woodier notes, following the arc of a day on the cliffs.

How It Wears on Skin

The opening is bright and sparkling — black pepper, Calabrian bergamot, saffron and salt, a burst of citrus reminiscent of sunny days in the villa's gardens. The heart opens onto a symphony of white flowers, enriched with marine notes, verbena and ginger, carrying the delicacy of island nature. The base closes on woody notes, vanilla, musk and mate, with an oriental touch that vibrates in unison with the initial marine freshness.

Who We Recommend Fersen For

Suited to those who love aquatics but want them more complex, thanks to black pepper and saffron adding depth from the very opening. Perfect for warm weather and for anyone looking for a fragrance that tells a story beyond just its olfactory pyramid.

Fragrance Characteristics

Our Take

Fersen doesn't try to be the most powerful aquatic in the collection, and that's fine. It's a fragrance that takes its time to tell a story — that of a refined man in a villa on the cliffs — rather than simply evoking the sea.
