The This is not a blue bottle collection borrows its title from The Treachery of Images, René Magritte's painting in which a painted pipe is contradicted by the caption written just below it. Histoires de Parfums makes it the starting point of an exploration of blue, like an explosion leading from abstract forms to very strong sensations.
The first opus opens with a "hypnotic" aldehyde and an "electric" orange. A metallic geranium and a polar honey form the heart, over a base of amber, musk and patchouli.

This is not a blue bottle 1/.1 in detail
Histoires de Parfums devoted a whole collection to blue: This is not a blue bottle, whose name refers to René Magritte's The Treachery of Images, the painting in which the caption denies the object painted. The house sees it as an initial explosion, leading from abstract forms to very strong sensations. 1/.1 is its first opus.
The official pyramid, with its unexpected adjectives, opens with a "hypnotic" aldehyde and an "electric" orange. The heart pairs a "metallic" geranium and a "polar" honey. The base brings together a "magnetic" amber, an "ethereal" musk and an "attractive" patchouli. The house classes it among floral chypres.
This is not a blue bottle 1/.1 can be worn from spring to winter, by day or by night.
Three chypre fragrances in our catalogue come close: Chypress by Floris shares amber, musk and patchouli; Diaghilev by Roja Parfums pairs orange, patchouli and musk; Hacivat by Nishane finds patchouli again in a fruity chypre.
