Initio Parfums Privés: French Niche Fragrances with Power
The Birth of Initio: Perfume as Mystical Force
Initio Parfums Privés emerged in 2015 with a clear mission: to restore perfume to its original greatness and power. The name "Initio" comes from Latin, meaning "the beginning" or "initiation" - fitting for a brand that views fragrance as a transformative force.
This French house was founded under the guidance of Julien Sprecher and Axel Berrier, with Nadia Benamar serving as creative director. Their philosophy centers on the belief that perfume is more than just a pleasant scent - it should awaken emotions, enhance attraction, and tap into the subconscious mind.
Initio draws inspiration from ancient uses of perfume, when fragrances were employed in Egypt for magic, love, and purification. These cultural influences from the Middle East and North Africa continue to shape the brand's identity today. The house positions itself as a bridge between scientific innovation and artistic mastery.
In 2023, Initio was acquired by Advent International to accelerate global growth. This development highlights the brand's strong market position and potential in the luxury segment. The brand's commitment to creating "active fragrances" with proven emotional benefits sets it apart in the competitive niche market.
Initio Collections: From Carnal Blends to Black Gold Project
Initio structures its portfolio into five distinctive collections, each offering unique olfactory experiences.
The Carnal Blends form the brand's core, featuring Hedione, a pheromone-like substance designed for seduction. This collection includes bestsellers like
Side Effect with its
boozy rum-tobacco combination and
Psychedelic Love with hypnotic
floral notes.
The Absolutes focus on natural ingredients and traditional Arabic culture. Absolute Aphrodisiac combines
vanilla,
musk, and
castoreum into a sensual
animalic experience that awakens primal instincts.
The Black Gold Project revolves around
oud, perfumery's "liquid gold."
Oud for Greatness stands as the undisputed star - a powerful
woody fragrance featuring
saffron and
patchouli that commands attention.
The Hedonist collection celebrates joy and lightness.
Musk Therapy offers a creamy
musk experience, while
Paragon uses
palo santo and
white sage for spiritual cleansing.
Magnetic Blends are designed for layering, featuring synthetic musk and ambergris notes with pheromonal focus.
