The primal sap of the forest. The dew-soaked ground releases the smell of damp earth that awakens an animal joy. A soft cloud of oak moss and mushrooms rises. Sandalwood envelops, clary sage enlivens. The benzoin drydown reveals amber and resinous notes, prowling like a wolf.
All about this fragrance
Vibe check
This is a scent for close, quiet movement through a cool green landscape, when the air still holds moisture and the ground gives off its own smell. It feels intimate rather than loud, with a watchful, animal calm that suits a wearer who prefers texture and atmosphere over polish.
How to wear
Best in cool to mild weather, where its earthy and mossy facets can stay distinct without becoming heavy. Apply lightly to let the damp-earth opening breathe; a few sprays are enough, as the woody-resinous drydown settles close to the skin while still leaving a soft, savory trail.
Who it’s for
For lovers of earthy woods, moss, vetiver and unconventional green compositions. It will appeal to those who enjoy naturalistic, slightly savory perfumes with a forest-floor feel, subtle animality and a dry, resinous finish.
The nose
Marie Schnirer. Known for working in a highly textural, image-led style, Schnirer tends to build fragrances with clear material contrasts and a strong sense of place. Her work for Millesève’s debut collection fits that approach: naturalistic, memory-driven compositions that turn vegetal, earthy and atmospheric impressions into polished perfume structure.
Collaborators
Camille Hauguel shaped the brand’s creative direction and autobiographical brief, grounding the fragrance in Millesève’s memory-based, nature-rooted universe. Marie Schnirer translated that vision into the perfume formula, working closely with the founder on the debut collection’s development.
Milleseve’s story
Millesève is a French author-perfumery house built around intimate sensory storytelling. Its identity is rooted in olfactory memory, especially landscapes and impressions drawn from Normandy and Paris, with nature, childhood and fleeting lived moments treated as the raw material of perfume.
À Pas De Loup (On Tiptoe)’s concept
The fragrance belongs to Millesève’s memory-led world, where perfume is conceived as a sensorial story rather than a simple product. Its earthy, mossy, animal-leaning character echoes the house’s rural and vegetal inspirations: damp ground, forest growth and the instinctive pull of the natural world.
