All about this fragrance

Vibe check

This is the scent for someone who likes their florals with attitude: a close, confident presence that feels sharper than romantic and more stylized than soft. It suits an evening in motion, when the air is warm and the room is full of people who notice texture, contrast and a little edge.

How to wear

Best in mild to cool weather, where the rose, saffron and oud can project without becoming heavy. Two to three sprays are enough; it diffuses well and lasts, so a light hand keeps the leather and sneaker accord vivid while the floral heart stays clear on skin.

Who it’s for

For wearers who enjoy floral-leather compositions with a modern, slightly synthetic twist, and who like their rose to feel textured rather than pretty. It will appeal to those drawn to oud, saffron and woody depth, especially if they prefer bold, unisex scents with a fashion-forward edge.

The nose

Karine Vinchon-Spehner is a French perfumer known for compositions that feel precise, textured and contemporary, often balancing natural materials with a clear conceptual twist. Her work here turns Centifolia rose into something urban and tactile, using a sneaker accord to push the flower into unexpected territory. She is part of the generation of perfumers comfortable with bold contrasts and readable structures: floral against leather, softness against an almost synthetic edge. In Au Pied du Rosier, that approach gives the fragrance its tension and its memorable signature.

Collaborators

Marie Jeanne’s creative team shaped the concept around the idea of the joy of finally getting a long-awaited pair of sneakers, and the brand’s presentation extends that vision through street-art imagery. The bottle artwork by Dai Dai Tran adds a visual layer to the fragrance’s urban, playful identity.

Marie Jeanne’s story

Marie Jeanne is a Grasse-rooted house built around high-quality natural raw materials and restrained, essential compositions. The brand’s style is direct rather than ornate, letting a few carefully chosen materials carry the idea, with this fragrance showing that philosophy through a single striking contrast between rose and sneaker accord.

Au Pied du Rosier’s concept

Au Pied du Rosier was conceived as a rose fragrance with a streetwear attitude, inspired by the feeling of opening a much-awaited new pair of sneakers. The Centifolia rose is framed by saffron, oud and a distinctive sneaker accord, creating a modern floral that reads as both playful and forceful.

Extra info

The name means “At the foot of the rosebush,” but the concept is deliberately urban rather than pastoral. Marie Jeanne also issued a limited shoebox edition in only 100 numbered copies, reinforcing the sneaker theme at the heart of the fragrance.
