Our debut collection is an ode to Los Angeles, home and creative muse to Perfumehead Founder Daniel Patrick Giles. Composed by a team of French master perfumers, the collection is a curation of places, scents and scenes that author a unique portrait of Los Angeles. Each parfum is a pure expression of luxury – rich, concentrated, and handcrafted from the world’s finest essential oils, natural extracts and safe synthetics.
Extrait de parfum (pronounced éks-trè du par-fin) is the most luxurious of all perfume types. Crafted with rare and/or natural ingredients, they contain many different notes and have a distinct opening and development that deepens and mellows over time. Parfums are recognized by their longevity, strong projection, and lingering sillage (or trail).
Perfumehead’s seven extraits de parfums are formulated in batches of 50 then hand-poured, bottled and sealed in a traditional glass perfumers' bottle. Each perfume is hand labelled and numbered before being packaged.
Extrait de parfum contains a high concentration of essential oils. One to two dabs to pulse points with the bottle stopper, or a single spray in a V-shape, should be sufficient for day or evening wear. For best results, apply on warm, clean skin. The warmth will help the scent to develop. Never rub perfume that has been applied to a pulse point as this can cause the top notes to fade and evaporate before they settle.
Your extrait de parfum should be kept in a cool, dark, dry place, preferably inside the box it came in or nestled away inside a bedroom dresser or vanity. Some extrait de parfum continue to macerate (the process whereby the alcohol in the perfume evaporates) after purchase therefore it is doubly important to keep the bottle in the box. Avoid storing perfume in your bathroom.
