An elegant dinner begins before the first course: with the outfit, anticipation of a special place and the pleasure of making an occasion of the evening. In a fine restaurant, at a formal invitation or around a gala table, perfume becomes the finishing touch to your look.
Warm, layered compositions suit the setting, while the table calls for restraint in quantity. The two ideas work together: choose an expressive perfume and wear it lightly.
What suits eveningwear?
Treat fragrance as an accessory. A simple dark dress, trouser suit or well-cut suit needs few additional details. If you enjoy sweet florals or warm spices, let perfume add that personal side.
There is no rule that black clothing requires a dark fragrance. Decide instead between floral warmth and spicy depth.
The Queen Elixir for honeyed florals
The Queen Elixir is our women’s recommendation. Honey and fruit meet jasmine, iris, rose and other flowers, with cocoa and woods adding warmth.
Choose it when a sweet floral perfume feels like the natural finishing touch to an elegant evening. With restrained eveningwear, it becomes a refined finishing touch.
Le Provocateur Elixir for spicy evening warmth
Le Provocateur Elixir combines apple and citrus with cinnamon, hazelnut and cognac; tobacco, tonka and woods create the warm background.
For a man who prefers distinctive spice to pure freshness, it brings depth without losing its polish. The two Elixirs are equally special choices, each with a clearly different character.
Three details for the table
- Seating distance matters. Begin lightly for several courses beside other guests; do not dose for the size of the entrance hall.
- Food has its own aroma. Do not spray at the table or before the next course.
- Treat clothing with care. Apply mainly to skin; do not spray delicate or pale evening fabrics without checking.
A fragrance for special invitations
An evening fragrance can accompany anniversary dinners, birthdays or a concert followed by a meal. Choose a character you genuinely enjoy.
