At the Saint-Martin collegiate church in Angers , Benjamin Lacombe 's universe unfolds in an immersive exhibition where more than a hundred originals invite young and old to enter his worlds: childhood, tales, nature, dreamed-of Japan and suspended atmospheres.
To enhance this experience, Benjamin Lacombe personally wanted to collaborate with Diaphane Projects to create two exclusive perfumes to accompany the exhibition. This is how the fragrances Curiosité and Green Garden came to be.
Two perfumes, two gateways to his imagination
Curiosité evokes a wondrous cabinet that one opens with a gesture. Deep, velvety and slightly mysterious, this fragrance captures the wonder and fascination inspired by the artist's drawings.
Green Garden explores another facet of its universe: dream gardens, secret glades, inner landscapes. Botanical, luminous, and soothing, this fragrance gently envelops the visitor.
A major artist, a rare exhibition
At 43, Benjamin Lacombe is one of the leading representatives of the new French illustration scene, with nearly fifty published works and more than 3 million copies sold.
The exhibition features original artwork from The Little Mermaid , Bambi , Beauty and the Beast , Alice in Wonderland , and The White Rabbit, who is always late.
As a preview, the first illustrations from his upcoming album , The Great Gatsby, are also revealed there.
When image meets fragrance
Created specifically by Diaphane Projects at the request of Benjamin Lacombe, the fragrances Curiosité and Green Garden allow visitors to breathe in his world as much as to contemplate it. The perfume becomes an additional gateway to his imagination, an immersive and delicate sensory experience.
