    Additional information

    Founded in 2000, Editions de Parfums Frédéric Malle embodies the excellence of fine, auteur perfumery. Heir to a prestigious lineage, Frédéric Malle gives free rein to the greatest perfumers to create unique and timeless niche fragrances. Dominique Ropion, Jean-Claude Ellena, and Olivia Giacobetti, among others, have created powerful, refined, and innovative compositions. Each fragrance reflects a free artistic vision, conceived as an exceptional work of art. Frédéric Malle restores perfume to its rightful place as an art form, blending technical mastery with pure emotion.

    Clean and luminous skin.
    Haute perfumery meets Swedish haute couture.

    You know Acne Studios — this Swedish fashion house with assertive minimalism, whose clean and precise aesthetic has redefined Nordic luxury. Frédéric Malle translated it into a perfume. The result is an Eau de Parfum that smells like what the brand looks like — crisp, luminous, no frills. Not a fashion perfume in the commercial sense of the term. A true collaboration between two houses that share the same conviction: quality above all.

    Acne Studios was composed by perfumer Suzy Le Helley — one of the most precise noses of her generation, trained at the Givaudan school. In this Eau de Parfum concentration, she signs a composition of remarkable clarity and coherence. Aldehydes open with an almost crystalline luminosity — clean, airy, slightly soapy. Rose, violet, orange blossom, and peach form a delicate and slightly fruity floral heart, with a soft and universal femininity. The base of vanilla, sandalwood, incense, and musks extends the composition into a soft and enveloping warmth. Acne Studios doesn't try to impress. It embraces.

    Acne Studios is the fragrance for those who wear their elegance lightly — and who don't need it to be noticed.

    A note from Maison Diaphane

    Acne Studios is proof that fashion-perfume collaborations can be successful when entrusted to the right people. Suzy Le Helley has managed to capture Acne Studios' clean Nordic aesthetic without betraying it. It's a discreet and addictive fragrance — one that you notice on others before wanting to find it yourself.

    Acne Studios Eau de Parfum by Frédéric Malle is the result of a collaboration between the haute perfumery house Frédéric Malle and the Swedish fashion house Acne Studios. Composed by perfumer Suzy Le Helley, it translates Acne Studios' minimalist and clean aesthetic into a fragrance. Available at Maison Diaphane, official retailer in Angers, in 100 ml. Free delivery from €100 (in France).

    Its olfactory pyramid revolves around a delicate floral heart — rose, violet, orange blossom, and peach — preceded by a crystalline and luminous aldehydic opening, and extended by an enveloping base of vanilla, sandalwood, incense, and musks. The composition expresses a purity and lightness that directly reflect Acne Studios' visual DNA.

    Acne Studios is a clean and luminous floral fragrance with moderate sillage, ideal for daytime wear all year round, suitable for both women and men.

    Are the opening aldehydes too soapy or old-fashioned?

    No. Suzy Le Helley treats them with a contemporary lightness — they give a luminous clarity to the opening without ever tipping into the soapy effect of classic 70s aldehydes. It's a modern use of a historical note — precise, airy, immediately alluring.

    Is this really haute perfumery or just a fashion fragrance?

    Full-fledged haute perfumery. At Frédéric Malle, all collaborations — even with fashion houses — are entrusted to great perfumers with total creative freedom. Suzy Le Helley composed Acne Studios with the same demands as any solo signature from the collection. The result confirms it.

    What season is Acne Studios for?

    All year round. The aldehydic freshness makes it ideal for spring and summer, but the sandalwood-musk-vanilla base gives it enough warmth for autumn and winter. It's an everyday fragrance without seasonal restrictions — elegant in all contexts.

    Who is Suzy Le Helley, the perfumer behind Acne Studios?

    Suzy Le Helley is a perfumer trained at the Givaudan school, renowned for her highly precise and assertively modern compositions. Her collaboration with Frédéric Malle on Acne Studios demonstrates a particular sensitivity for clean and luminous fragrances — an aesthetic she masters with rare elegance.
