In the silence of the Alpine peaks, the scent of juniper berries rises, sharp and fresh, over the crisp bite of winter air. Pine trees stand tall, their resinous warmth mingling with the cold, while the soft whisper of sun-dried hay carries a hint of summer pastures. This fragrance echoes the wild contrast of the mountains, where the chill of snow meets the quiet warmth of the earth.
All about this fragrance
Vibe check
The register is unhurried and outdoors-facing: stepping inside after a cold mountain walk, with resinous air still caught in a wool collar. Juniper and snowy mineral notes preserve that bracing edge, while hay and soft smoke give the scent a warmer, more intimate presence.
How to wear
Its cold-air accords and warmer hay-and-pine facets suggest autumn, winter and crisp spring weather. Start with one or two sprays on skin beneath clothing, letting body warmth soften the resinous notes. In warmer conditions, apply lightly to keep the juniper and mineral contrast in focus.
Who it’s for
For those drawn to aromatic woods, mineral textures and the dry warmth of hay rather than overt sweetness. It suits a taste for landscape-inspired perfumery, where a crisp, almost austere opening meets a softer resinous undertone.

The nose
Fabrice Pellegrin is known for his sensitivity to natural materials and his ability to give woods, resins and softer, enveloping notes a clear structure. His work includes Diptyque’s Do Son and Eau Duelle. For Les Alpes, he builds a mountain landscape around hay absolute, setting its warm, balsamic character against juniper and pine.
Nissaba’s story
Nissaba treats fragrance as an expression of the agricultural regions and communities behind its ingredients. Founded by responsible-sourcing specialist Sébastien Tissot, the house emphasizes traceable natural materials and commits 5% of sales to farming projects. Its regional compositions connect the finished perfume to the landscapes where its raw materials grow.
Les Alpes’s concept
Les Alpes began with hay absolute from the southern French Alps, extracted in Grasse and selected for its warm, woody, balsamic character. Pine and juniper bring the sharper mountain-air contrast, with juniper essence sourced from the Argentera Mountains in the Italian Alps. The concept returns to founder Sébastien Tissot’s native Alpine landscape.
Extra info
Les Alpes is Nissaba’s first extrait de parfum, with a declared 90% natural-origin content. An early version was presented at Esxence under the name Haute Montagne, in a laboratory spray without final packaging.
