Giving a perfume is never an insignificant gesture. It's neither an accumulation of expected codes, nor a fixed choice. It's a way of expressing affection differently than with words: a perfume on the skin, a presence that becomes a memory.
At Maison Diaphane, we love to celebrate this sensitive, almost invisible dimension of a perfumed gift. And if there's one house that naturally embodies this spirit, it's Harold & Maude — a house that composes perfumes like writing a story: with nuances, emotions, and impulses. Each creation bears a name that is never insignificant, like an invitation to feel even before smelling.
Follement Romantique
A perfume of amorous impulse and dizziness. A spontaneous, vibrant composition that evokes a racing heart and the beauty of a feeling lived without restraint.
Délicieusement Tendre
A soft and enveloping fragrance, built around proximity and reassuring gestures. A perfume that accompanies long periods and the delicacy of a bond that settles in.
Délicieusement Lumineuse
A clear and sunny floral bouquet, carried by a sense of obviousness and gentle warmth. A luminous presence, never overwhelming.
Délicieusement Pétillante
A lively and joyful composition, infused with a light energy. It evokes the spontaneity and impulse of happy moments lived without calculation.
Délicieusement Sensuelle
A carnal and enveloping fragrance, built on the closeness of bodies and the depth of an intimate connection. A perfume to be worn close to oneself.
Divinement Audacieux
An asserted, elegant, almost magnetic olfactory writing. For those who love uniqueness and a presence that doesn't try to please at all costs.
Résolument Affranchi
A perfume of freedom and breath. It accompanies an independent, self-assured personality, who asserts their identity without ever being rigid.
Discovery Set
An invitation to explore the entire Harold & Maude range, to compare, feel, and create olfactory correspondences for two or for oneself.
Choosing a Harold & Maude perfume isn't about checking a box. It's about choosing an intention, an emotion, a fragment of a story that you offer to another — or to yourself.
Giving a Meaningful Gesture
These creations often become emotional markers: a perfume associated with an encounter, a memory that is reactivated over time. At Maison Diaphane, we love to accompany these choices with precision, taking the time to understand what you wish to convey, and guiding you towards the creation that will resonate most sincerely with your story.
