CONTRE-JOUR is more than a perfume — it is a presence, a wild and free spirit by Annick Ménardo.

Defying convention, this fragrance reveals a shimmering yet mysterious aura, inviting you to resist definition. It reflects the spirit of the Mediterranean wildflower known as the “Everlasting Flower,” celebrated for its remarkable longevity: a sunlit yellow bloom contrasted by the dark, untamed depths of its scent.

Master perfumer Annick Ménardo drew inspiration from this duality to create a fragrance that challenges traditional olfactory structures. Notes of everlasting flower unfold with a spicy, almond-like character, dancing with an intense rose absolute that embraces both shadow and thorn. Sandalwood oil lends rhythm to this manifesto and deepens the mystery of the composition.

Captivated by the allure of contrasts, Annick Ménardo crafts fragrances for a new era — for those who cherish their own enigma.
