"Parfum de Venise" by Jean Patou, launched in 1999 and crafted by the renowned perfumer Jean Kerléo, captures the essence of Venice in a bottle. This exquisite fragrance was sold exclusively at the Parisian boutique of Jean Patou, offering a unique olfactory journey through the storied canals and vibrant streets of the Serenissima. The perfume embodies the romantic and mystical spirit of Venice, blending notes that evoke the city's rich history, art, and atmosphere.
Complementing the fragrance is a book titled "Flavors and Scents of the Serenissima," which further immerses the reader in the sensory tapestry of Venice. This book, a collaborative effort published by Clairsud editions of Toulouse, was released in January 2000. It delves into the culinary and aromatic heritage of Venice, providing a literary backdrop to the scent's creation. Together, the perfume and the book offer a multi-sensory experience, inviting enthusiasts to explore Venice's enchanting world through both scent and narrative.
