For Men & Women

Among all the qualities of Santal, the Essence of Mysore continues to establish itself as one of the rarest and most exotic scents. Affinessence has combined it's infinitely sensual, carnal and milky notes with Basmati - one of the most fragrant rice in the world.

Bold and sublime, this fused duo is wrapped in the lace of Patchouli, Iris, and Cashmeran, to form an overwhelming fragrance with an addictive and racy trail. This perfume comes with a cashmere perfume pouch and is elegantly presented in a luxurious black lacquered wooden box with magnetic closure.

A Pioneer in Sensory and Technological Perfumery

Awarded by the Fragrance Foundation and the Cosmetiquemag Awards, Affinessence stands out as a bold and innovative voice in haute perfumery.

Pioneering in its approach, the brand deconstructs the traditional olfactory pyramid to create linear fragrances, each built around a single key phase: top, heart, or base notes.

Top Notes Collection: “For the first time in the world, we’re capturing the quintessence of freshness with perfumes that last twelve hours, thanks to exclusive technology.”

Heart Notes Collection: “When working with floral or fruity heart notes, our goal is to enhance your power of seduction using a lab-tested molecule with proven attractive power.”

Base Notes Collection: “For those who seek sensual, warm perfumes with undeniable, striking sillage, we created the Base Notes collection—composed 100% of rich and deep base notes.”

Sophie Bruneau, founder of Affinessence

Are your perfumes suitable for sensitive skin or allergies?

All our perfumes comply with the strict safety standards set by the International Fragrance Association (IFRA). While reactions are rare, if you have sensitive skin or allergies, we recommend starting with a 1ml sample to ensure compatibility.

How does perfume evolve on the skin?

Perfume is alive. It reacts to your skin, your warmth, the air around you — even your mood.

It unfolds in stages:
The top notes are bright and fleeting — they vanish within minutes.
Heart notes follow, more expressive and personal.
Then come the base notes, deeper and lasting, often present hours later… even the next day.

I can’t smell my perfume after a while — is that normal?

Yes — it’s a natural reaction called olfactory fatigue.

Your sense of smell “filters out” familiar scents to avoid sensory overload. As a result, your fragrance may seem to vanish… but it’s still there, often noticed by those around you.
