When two virtuosos meet, one a master of crystal, the other of enigma, they give rise to a piece of art that makes time hold its breath. La Valse Hésitation seals the alliance between the Magritte Foundation and Lalique in a limited edition of 250 signed crystal flacons, each holding a rare perfume essence offering a singular sensory experience.
Art captured in a flacon
This uniquely poetic flacon celebrates two extraordinary artistic visions. Where René Magritte’s universe challenges our perception of reality, the crystal shaped by Lalique gives it new form, tangible and luminous.
Together, they give life to a creation crafted in every detail, where each line reflects both the precision of the gesture and the freedom of a gaze that redefines the real.
The Manifesto of Audacity
Conceived as an echo of its crystal shell, the extrait de parfum The Manifesto of Audacity defies the laws of gravity. Created by perfumer Véronique Nyberg, it celebrates the audacity of a composition in reverse, where the notes intertwine like the steps of a waltz between reality and illusion.
An opening flight of pink pepper and ginger begins the dance, followed by a floral and botanical heart of shiso and jasmine absolute. In the base, musks and Orcanox™ envelop the skin in a deep, magnetic trail. A unisex fragrance, resolutely surreal, escaping all comparison.
