We are cosmetic detectives. We travel the world with our notebooks and magnifying glasses, searching for scents, textures, and stories. Sometimes, we discover products that have just been launched. Other times, some have been around for almost a century. That's right. Eau de Menton, a eau de toilette which has been perfuming France since 1947.
When they ask you "what do you smell like?", you can tell the story of the Parisian perfumer Louis Berneux, who settled after World War II in Roquebrune Cap Martin, along with Mento, wanted to blend the best essences of lemon. This is a citrus village, which has cultivated this fruit since the 15th century. Its specialty is unusual, smooth, and somewhat sweet lemons. He invented Eau de Menton that smells like a top secret mixture of natural essential oils of lemon, softened by a touch of white musk. Its main notes? Lemon, bergamot, anise, petitgrain... And that's all we can say.
