Additional information

Born in Paris, HAROLD & MAUDE draws inspiration from a legend of love and perfume that began in the 1950s. Founded in 2023, this French family-run house creates exclusive, bold, and timeless fragrances. Each scent is conceived in Paris and bottled in France, using artisanal expertise and exceptional raw materials. Led by Christian Paindavoine, an expert in luxury perfumery, the team blends tradition and modernity. HAROLD & MAUDE embodies a free-spirited, creative perfumery deeply rooted in French elegance.

A luminous contrast between aniseed freshness and leathery depth.
Star anise, iris, cardamom, amber — audacious, powdery, elegant.

Divinely Audacious is the most contrasted and contemporary composition from Harold & Maude — founded in Paris in 2023 by Christian Paindavoine, with creations signed by Nejla Barbir. It opens with a luminous and slightly aniseed freshness — Chinese star anise, bergamot, and tangerine — a lively and immediately recognizable opening, subtly spicy from the very first seconds.

Iris arrives in the heart with its most powdery facets, combined with spicy cardamom and a touch of creamy coconut that softens and balances. Rose, jasmine, and orange blossom complete this complex heart, giving the composition its ambitious and refined character. The base settles in with authority — warm amber, dry and slightly smoky leather, deep woody notes — a noticeable and long-lasting sillage, leaving a mark without ever being heavy.

Divinely Audacious is the perfume for those who know how to stand out — with elegance and without excess.

A word from Maison Diaphane

The most ambitious composition in the collection — the star anise-iris-cardamom accord is remarkably sophisticated for this price. The contrast between the fresh, aniseed opening and the leathery-amber base is what makes it immediately recognizable. Recommended for those who already know amber scents and are looking for something more unexpected.

Divinement Audacieux Eau de Parfum by Harold & Maude is a unisex amber spicy perfume from the French house founded in Paris in 2023 by Christian Paindavoine, with compositions signed by Nejla Barbir. It combines Chinese star anise, bergamot, and tangerine in the opening, iris, cardamom, coconut, and white flowers in the heart, and amber, leather, and woody notes in the base. Available at Maison Diaphane, official retailer in Angers. Free delivery from €100 (in France).

Its pyramid combines a fresh and slightly aniseed star anise-bergamot-tangerine opening, a powdery, spicy, and creamy iris-cardamom-coconut heart, and a warm and persistent amber-leather-wood base. An amber spicy unisex scent with a noticeable sillage, perfect for autumn and winter.

What is Chinese star anise?

Star anise is a spice with slightly aniseed, subtly warm, and subtly sweet facets. It is a rare opening note in contemporary perfumery, which gives Divinement Audacieux an immediately distinct entry from conventional amber scents. It quickly fades to make way for iris in the heart.

Is the iris very powdery?

Yes — it's its signature. But the spicy cardamom and creamy coconut that accompany it balance the powder and give it a warmer, more contemporary dimension. This is not an old-fashioned iris — it's a modern, spicy, and slightly tropical iris.

For what occasion?

Evenings and elegant occasions — its sophistication and noticeable sillage destine it for moments when one wants to assert presence with refinement. A signature scent, not a discreet everyday one.

For which season?

Autumn and winter — the warm amber and leathery base blossoms with the cold. Its sophistication makes it an excellent dark-season perfume.
