Delphine THIERRY This modern-day Calypso scours the mountains of Maures and Esterel in the South of France to gather the plants for her creations. Surrounded with the scents of myrtle and rose, like Erato, the muse of lyric poetry,Delphine listens to the sounds of this sun-drenched land. But her Ulysses has never left – he watches over her workshop in the enchanted garden where she blends rare spices and precious balms. She often sits and dreamily contemplates the landscape from the bluffs above Grasse looking down over the River Siagne. And as the sun sets over the scrubland,she greedily inhales the nighttime scentsof wild thyme, lavender,sage and marjoram. A TEAM OF TALENTED ARTISTS Thomas FONTAINE He leaves at first light to walk the forests of the Sologne, this land of sorcerers and spells where he was born. Like Imhotep of Egypt,Thomas Fontaine is an architect of scents.He assembles his creations slowly,echoing the gestures of his ancestors, stonecutters of the Berry, who built cathedrals during the Middle Ages. Great care and attention is paid to finding the right balances and harmonies, and he infuses his potions with light and color. Everything is done with absolute intent as he concocts his compositions like the ancient masters; creations that will last an eternity.
