Parcel from Paris

‘Eau du Ciel’ was my first ‘real’ perfume as a child, and to me this ethereal floral scent will always embody the nostalgic spirit of the house Annick Goutal… Every Annick Goutal fragrance tells a personal story, inspired by precious people and memories in her life. In the same romantic vein, the Parisian perfume house created a range of jewelry and lingerie to complement the olfactory moods of 4 of their classic fragrances: Petite Cherie, Quel Amour, Grand Amour and Songes.

The jewelry is designed by Virginie Monroe.

The designer behind the lingerie line is Vannina Vesperini who pioneered the ‘dessous-dessus’ (under-outerwear) concept with her bright silk camisole tops. Her collection for Annick Goutal is composed of easy mix & match pieces in a luxe and comfortable lycra/silk blend. The lingerie is wrapped in a matching silk pochette with a lace ‘butterfly’ ribbon, and you can wear this ribbon with the camisole in lieu of the removable silk bow-tie~ so chic. With your purchase you also receive a satin ‘songes’ sweet dreams eye mask. Every detail, right down to the lovely packaging, is so refined; these pieces would make a beautiful gift. (messieurs, take note!)

The lingerie is available in soft peony pink to reflect the notes in the fragrance Quel Amour, and in passionate (yet chic) red for Grand Amour. The jewelry in these 2 stories includes heart lockets in patinated brass or red enamel and miniature cupid charms:

 
The jewelry motif for Petite Cherie is a tiny brass filigree butterfly matched with green aventurine beads. We especially love the necklace with free dangling chains in the style of an Edwardian ‘negligee’ necklace. A Pale blue lace corset completes this lingerie theme.

 Gold silk with black lace is a sophisticated take on Songes, a fragrance evocative of dreams and exotic travels. Perhaps the most wearable in “dessous-dessus” style, this theme also includes a wrap-around dress. The stand-out piece of jewelry is a golden brass multi-strand necklace, scattered with dark sparkling stars.

prices: bracelets 60 €, earrings 65 €, necklaces from 65-160 €

The lingerie is available exclusively in the Annick Goutal ‘boudoir’ boutiques in Paris: rue Saint Sulpice, rue de Castiglione, and Boulevard Victor Hugo. Prices: boxer shorts 115 €, camisole top 145 €, wrap-top 195 €, slip dress 195 €, wrap-around dress 300 €.
