Perfumer: Jean Claude Ellena

One of the two fragrances created by Jean Claude Ellena to celebrate the history and craftsmanship of Grasse the cradle of modern perfume aesthetics and the royal floral couple of the region: jasmine grandiflorum and rosa centifolia.

Jasmin de Pays (the jasmine of the land) is a honeyed silky jasmine built around the most refined extract one can obtain: absolute. The grandiflorum variety historically is a Grasse specialty and has been part of the most iconic perfumes of the past and present. It is available on a very limited scale from the jasmine fields of the region.

The jasmine grandiflorum absolute is the physical tangible dimension Jasmin de Pays, but there is also the story that the perfumer wanted to tell with the formula:

“My devotion to jasmine lies with my childhood in Grasse. As a child, I used to harvest jasmine at dawn, picking the white porcelain flowers one by one, their smell was green, transparent and intoxicating. By noon, the last of the last white petals released a warm smell of orange blossom. By night, the forgotten flowers, now yellowed, emanated a happy, deep animalic fragrance. If its perfume was given rhythm by the time of day, then its nature never changed. Admiring this work of nature was my inspiration to imagine the perfume in a different way, to play with its elements and change its effects to make it unique and forever Jasmine. “

All about this fragrance

Vibe check

This is for close, attentive wearing rather than loud projection: a scent that feels intimate on the skin and reveals itself in small movements of air. It suits moments when you want a polished floral presence with a sensual edge, not a bouquet that announces itself from across the room.

How to wear

Best in mild to warm weather, where the jasmine can unfold without becoming heavy. Apply sparingly, one to three sprays, to let the absolute, clove and musk breathe; on skin it reads silky and natural, while in warmer air it gains a fuller, more honeyed depth.

Who it’s for

For lovers of realistic jasmine, floral-musky compositions and fragrances with a sensual but refined profile. It will appeal to those who prefer naturalistic white florals, subtle spice and a composition that feels elegant, textured and quietly expressive.

The nose

Jean-Claude Ellena is one of modern perfumery’s most influential minimalists, admired for his transparent, airy style and his ability to make a few materials feel complete. His work often favors clarity over ornament, with precise textures, restrained diffusion and a strong sense of place. For Jasmin de Pays, Ellena draws on his own childhood in Grasse, where he harvested jasmine at dawn and watched its scent change through the day. That personal memory gives the fragrance its quiet realism: not a decorative jasmine, but a study of the flower’s living, shifting character.

Collaborators

Creative director Gian Luca Perris shaped the project’s concept and chose Jean-Claude Ellena specifically for a fragrance devoted to Grasse and its jasmine heritage, framing the brief as a tribute to the region’s craftsmanship and floral legacy.

Perris Monte Carlo’s story

Perris Monte Carlo builds its identity around craftsmanship, exceptional raw materials and a return to perfumery as an art of sourcing, precision and memory. The house favors fragrances with a clear origin story and a strong link to place, especially Grasse and the traditions of classical French perfumery.

Jasmin de Pays’s concept

Jasmin de Pays was created as a tribute to Grasse, the historic center of perfume making, and to the jasmine grandiflorum that has long defined the region. Ellena’s inspiration came from childhood memories of harvesting jasmine at dawn and observing how its scent evolved from green and transparent to warm and deeply animalic as the day passed.

Extra info

The name means “jasmine of the land,” a direct nod to Grasse and its jasmine fields. The fragrance centers on jasmine grandiflorum absolute, a prized material available only in limited quantities from the region. It is part of Perris Monte Carlo’s tribute to the floral heritage of Grasse.
