EDITOR’S NOTE
Frederic Malle Heaven Can Wait is a journey in warm spice with clove, pimento, ambrette, and carrot seed joined by the sophisticated beauty of the iris. Vetiver brings structure and vibrancy; facets of peach and prune, and roundness.
Inspired in part by the intimacy of private worlds, the result is a modern rendering of a Parisian classic: understated, discreet, and noble–an eternal seduction, simultaneously exotic and comforting. It subtly draws one in irresistibly and invites embrace.
The result is something we now appreciate more than ever: a private heaven. The Perfumer: Born into a family of perfumers from Grasse, Jean-Claude Ellena was introduced to the art of developing fragrances as a teenager. Self-taught, he defines his creations as a “poetry of memory.” Everyday smells–wax floors, clean sheets, skin, an old sweater–are some of his great inspirations. His signature is simple, minimalist, and modern.
