Over 20% concentrate. We do not dilute our ideas : the formula carries weight. The alcohol content is 78 % vol., allowing for optimal diffusion while preserving the integrity of the raw materials. No water, no fillers : just what’s needed to hold the structure.
GRAVITAS CAPITALE
Buddha's Hand • Shishito Green Chili • Asphalt
Grégoire Balleydier sharpened a tuberose that never blooms. The flower keeps its mouth shut. Italian citron and Buddha's Hand slice the back of your throat the way cold air does on the first morning it turns, and you swallow it before you can name it. Jamaican allspice and shishito green chili climb a vegetal current under the skin, and it stings at the wrist. Indian tuberose and frankincense rise through the heart, cut to the line by green cardamom from Guatemala. Then the floor drops to an asphalt accord: wet stone in a courtyard once the cars have gone, what lifts off a Paris pavement an hour after rain. Honduras styrax and Haitian vetiver drag it down against the sternum. It never softens. The cold cuts your throat once, clears, and the mineral weight hangs low against the chest while the room waits for you to speak.

What sets us apart
Over 20% concentrate. No water. No fillers. Just 78% vol. alcohol and raw materials held at full intensity.
Most fragrances on the market sit between 5% and 15% concentration. We start where others stop. The result is a scent that doesn't fade into a whisper after an hour, it evolves, it projects, it stays.
This isn't about strength for its own sake. It's about giving every ingredient the room to express itself fully, without being diluted into politeness.
Laboratory-grade borosilicate glass, the same material used in scientific equipment. Cut, fire-finished, and hand-polished one piece at a time.
Each bottle is mouth-blown, which means no two are perfectly identical. Slight variations in weight, wall thickness, and curvature are not defects, they're proof of human hands at work.
Concealed magnetic closure. Calibrated atomizer tuned for extrait concentrations. Nothing decorative. Every detail serves precision, durability, and touch.
Every batch is aged for up to six months. Some creations require even longer. We don't fast-track anything.
No aggressive filtration. No reckless stabilisation. We let the structure build slowly, molecules bonding, edges softening, depth emerging, until the formula reaches a point of natural coherence.
The result is a scent that feels alive and complete from first spray. No harsh opening. No hollow dry-down. Just a composition that was given the time it needed.
We use natural and synthetic materials, deliberately, and without ideology. What matters is the effect, not the origin.
Natural ingredients bring texture, irregularity, and depth: absolutes, concretes, resinoids, CO₂ extracts. Synthetics bring precision, architecture, and contrast: captive molecules, reconstitutions, accords impossible in nature.
Every ingredient earns its place. Nothing is added for marketing. Nothing is removed out of fear.
Each fragrance is composed, produced, and bottled in France. From sourcing to final quality control, every step stays close to home.
We draw on centuries of perfumery tradition. Grasse, Paris, the great French houses, while refusing to be constrained by it. Tradition is a foundation, not a ceiling.
The perfumers we work with are among the most respected in the industry. Their signatures are unmistakable. Their craft is uncompromising.
Every full-size order ships with a complimentary sample vial. Try it on your skin first. Live with it. Let it evolve through a full day before deciding.
If the main bottle remains sealed and in its original packaging, you have 30 days to return it for a full refund. No questions, no friction.
Not sure where to start? Our Discovery Set lets you experience the full collection, seven fragrances, one decision at a time.
Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know about our perfumes
Yes. Every batch is aged for up to 6 month on some creations. We don’t fast-track anything. No aggressive filtration. No reckless stabilisation. We let the structure build slowly, until the formula gains depth and coherence. The result: a scent that feels alive and complete from first spray.
We use both : deliberately and without ideology. Natural materials bring texture, irregularity, and depth. Synthetics bring precision, architecture, and contrast. What matters is not the origin, but the effect. We work with absolutes, concretes, resinoids, CO₂ extracts, captive molecules, and reconstitutions when necessary. Every ingredient earns its place.
Yes. We comply with IFRA standards applicable at the time of production, but we don’t make “clean” perfume. Our role is not to strip scent of its power to satisfy a checklist. Full INCI lists are available. If you have specific sensitivities, we recommend testing carefully first doing a patch test.
Color is intentional. Each formula is tinted to match its olfactory identity : not just left to chance. We use both natural extracts (like saffron or resins) and selected colorants when needed, as part of a synesthetic approach to design. Shade and scent are developed together. Slight variations may occur from batch to batch, but nothing is accidental. We don’t hide the color : we compose it.
We include a free sample vial with every bottle purchased on eligible orders. Try it first. If the main bottle remains sealed and untouched, you can return it within reasonable timings.
Because of the design, making the 90 ml bottle larger would mean a diameter too wide to hold comfortably, so we keep the proportions slightly smaller as we have a max diameter of 75-80mm.
Each bottle is handmade, which naturally creates small variations in volume. For this reason, we display 45 ml and 90 ml. In reality, some bottles may contain a little more, but we prefer to stay transparent and announce the minimum rather than advertise 55 ml or 100 ml and risk disappointment when it cannot be guaranteed for every piece.
We ship worldwide from France and the Netherlands. France: free standard delivery (2–3 days), express next-day for €8.90. EU: free standard shipping (7–14 days depending on your country), with tracked and express options available. US, Canada, Japan, Asia-Pacific: standard from €19.90, express from €29.90, with complimentary express on qualifying orders. UK, Gulf States & rest of world: rates vary by destination. Final shipping costs are calculated at checkout based on your address.
We completely understand, choosing a fragrance online isn't easy. Because perfume is a sealed hygiene product, we can't accept returns on opened or tested bottles. That's why we include a complimentary sample vial with every full-size order, so you can try before breaking the seal. If the main bottle is still sealed and in its original packaging, you have 30 days to return it for a full refund. Not sure which scent is right for you? Our Discovery Set is the perfect way to explore the collection risk-free.
Orders within the EU include all applicable VAT, no surprises at your door. For deliveries outside the EU (US, UK, Gulf States, Asia, etc.), your local customs authority may apply import duties or taxes upon delivery. These vary by country and are beyond our control, but we're happy to help you estimate them if you reach out before ordering. We always recommend checking your country's import thresholds so there are no unexpected costs.
Our bottles are handmade from laboratory-grade borosilicate glass, the same type used in scientific equipment, making them far more resistant to impact and temperature changes than standard glass. Every order is packed with custom protective inserts, double-boxed, and carefully sealed. Breakage is extremely rare, but if your order does arrive damaged, just contact us within 48 hours with a few photos and we'll replace or refund the affected items, no questions asked.
You'll receive a shipping confirmation email with a tracking number as soon as your order is dispatched (usually within 2–3 business days). Tracking is available for most destinations. If anything seems off with your delivery, a missing parcel, a delay, or any other issue, just reach out and we'll sort it out. You can contact us at contact@premierepeau.com or +33 1 88 24 41 62 (Mon–Fri, 10:00–18:00 CET).
