Jovoy L’Art de la Guerre Eau de Parfum… 

The end justifies the means. For women and men, the spirit of conquest sometimes leads us down unexpected paths. To win the most worthy of all battles – the game of seduction –, there need to be strategies, sharp tactics and the determined desire, always, to triumph. On a playing field that only men used to enjoy, L’Art de la Guerre shakes up the rules, mixing the nostalgic freshness of fern with the spicy and smoky notes of eternity.

L’Arte de la Guerre starts with a fresh and incisive rhubarb note followed by the genius of a “clean” lavender note. Nutmeg provides a surprisingly floral but nutty scent that is soothing. And at last, the long-awaited fern, slightly tinted by smoked immortal flowers, but woody and spicy.

The Jovoy Renaissance Story…

JOVOY is the story of an enchanting renaissance, that of a Parisian perfume house born in 1923 and then forgotten for over 80 years. In 2010, François Hénin, a globetrotter captivated by alluring raw materials, decided to give it new life. After years of picaresque adventures pursuing scents deep into Vietnamese forests, followed by a detour through Grasse, the entrepreneurial adventurer had acquired unique expertise. Now the house’s creator and Artistic Director, he is making JOVOY Parfumeur Parisien an emblematic hallmark of niche contemporary perfumery.

Whether they are eau de parfum, extracts or interior scents, all JOVOY creations have a beguiling story to tell, originating from a personal meeting or experience. Each one is artfully prepared by independent noses engaged in creative fusion with the publishing house, and their interpretation must convey the initial promise and vision. As a result of this resolutely modern approach, JOVOY signs its name to a collection of multiple inspirations, perfectly in tune with amateurs of rare fragrances from around the world.

The complete opposite of standardized global creations, JOVOY therefore stands for the dream of exceptional perfumery, part of a notable French tradition and far from ostentation and elitism. An accessible dream, too, that the house wishes to share with all those who want pure fragrances arising out of emotion to carry them away on a journey.
