L’Orchestre Parfum was founded in Paris in 2017 by Pierre Guguen, following an idea first explored on stage in Barcelona in 2011: making music perceptible while it is being played. Together with Matthieu Roustan, the house then transformed this dialogue by pairing fragrances created by perfumers with compositions performed by musicians, leading to the opening of its first audiophile boutique in Paris in 2025.

L’Orchestre Parfum creates musical fragrances inspired by an instrument, a place or a memory, then pairs them with an original composition. The house collaborates with perfumers and virtuoso musicians, draws inspiration from the materials used by luthiers and produces its creations in France, using vegan formulas and French beet alcohol.

Right now at Fragsplit, 1 L'Orchestre Parfum fragrance is available as a 1 to 10 ml decant: Encens Asakusa.

Is L’Orchestre Parfum a niche fragrance brand?
Yes. L’Orchestre Parfum is an independent French niche fragrance house. It brings together olfactory creation, music and sensory experience.
Which L’Orchestre Parfum fragrance should I try first?
Encens Asakusa is a great introduction: its woody, powdery incense evokes a temple in Tokyo, extended by the serene notes of a koto.
Why is each fragrance paired with music?
For L’Orchestre Parfum, music and fragrance share the same fleeting nature. Each fragrance is therefore extended by a composition performed by a musician.
Where to buy a L'Orchestre Parfum decant in Switzerland?
