Dancing along the paths of a garden redolent with May roses and jasmine, she reaches the entrance of the grand palace, behind which a fabulous "festa" sparkles with life. 

Deep beneath her diaphanous skin beats the thrill of a feather light, bewitching love potion of a perfume, which resonates on the base notes of a baroque melody wrapped in a sensual cloak of leather and white musk.

David Jourquin’s childhood was split between the gentle spirit of his mother, steeped in exotic fragrances, and the strong character of his grandmother, who liked having everything in its proper place.

Each morning, his mother would slip into her leather coat before kissing him goodbye and dashing off to work. Invariably, her perfume would mingle with the magical scent of the supple hide, leaving an indelible mark on the first few moments of his day.

His radiant grandmother welcomed him day after day, echoing the scent of her shiny waxed wood floors. He was always rather amused by her of habit of sprinkling a few drops of Saint-Michel Eau de Cologne on the cushions of her lounge chair.

Somewhat withdrawn but still attentive, his father smoked cigars and sometimes brought David to the market in Pointe-à-Pitre where the young boy revelled in the sweet, powerful aromas of all the spices.
