Jean Claude Ellena for Perris
Lavender is emblematic of Provence. It was the Romans who introduced the herb in the region they referred to as ‘Provincia Romana’.
Perris are celebrating lavender in a regal way in their Lavande Romaine/ ‘Romans’ Lavender'. It’s a rich, herbaceous perfume with a juicy green note of blackcurrant.
Perfumer's note on the fragrance concept:
"As a perfumer, I love the strength of these landscapes and the beauty of the lavender fields where flocks of blue butterflies float in the air. To bring this scene to life, I composed Lavande Romaine, a joyful fragrance that dances and sings a summer tune."
All about this fragrance
Vibe check
This is the scent of moving through warm air with the windows open, when the day still feels bright but the light has softened. It suits a calm, self-possessed presence: clean, herbal, slightly fruity, with enough lift to feel vivid without ever becoming loud.
How to wear
Best in spring and summer, especially in mild to warm weather where its lavender and blackcurrant stay crisp and buoyant. Spray generously if you want more presence, as the composition wears with an airy, cologne-like lightness; on skin it stays fresh and close, while in the air it gives a clean aromatic trail.
Who it’s for
For those who like lavender with a modern twist: green, aromatic and lightly fruity rather than powdery or barbershop-clean. It will appeal to wearers who prefer transparent compositions, natural-feeling freshness and understated elegance.

The nose
Jean-Claude Ellena. One of the most influential perfumers of the modern era, Ellena is known for a restrained, transparent style that turns simple materials into lucid, atmospheric compositions. His work often feels airy and literary, with a preference for clarity over density. For Perris Monte Carlo, he brings that same precision to lavender, shaping it as a landscape rather than a single note. Lavande Romaine reflects his gift for making a composition feel natural, elegant and lightly poetic, with the kind of freshness that reads as effortless rather than decorative.
Collaborators
Gian Luca Perris, the brand’s founder and artistic director, worked closely on the creative direction and selected Ellena for his deep knowledge of terroir and Provençal materials, helping shape the fragrance’s regional concept and natural focus.
Perris Monte Carlo’s story
Perris Monte Carlo builds its identity around fine raw materials, regional character and a polished, contemporary reading of classic perfumery. The house often treats ingredients as places and landscapes, favoring compositions that feel rooted, tactile and quietly luxurious rather than ornate.
Lavande Romaine’s concept
Lavande Romaine was conceived as a tribute to Provence and to lavender’s Roman heritage, with the idea of a landscape scented by wind, fields and light. Ellena described it as a joyful summer scene, inspired by lavender fields and blue butterflies, and the composition frames lavender with blackcurrant buds, cedar and musk for a vivid, sparkling effect.
Extra info
Lavande Romaine is part of Perris Monte Carlo’s Les Parfums de Grasse Collection. Its name nods to lavender’s Roman-era history in Provence, and the brand’s imagery evokes lavender fields, mistral wind and blue butterflies. Despite being an Eau de Parfum, it is often described as light and sparkling.
