L'Artisan Parfumeur Un Air de Bretagne is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2017, created by Juliette Karagueuzoglou. Un Air de Bretagne opens with Citrus and Bergamot, settles into a heart of Neroli and Calone, and dries down to a base of Cedar, Cypress, Ambergris, and Seaweed. L'Artisan Parfumeur's Un Air de Bretagne carries a Favourite verdict, a fresh-led wear.

A truly evocative marine scent that transports you to a windswept coastline, Un Air de Bretagne manages to be both realistic and ethereal. It's divisive for some due to its prominent calone note and subtle projection, but for many, it's the ultimate 'mermaidcore' fragrance.

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport

Its fresh, clean, and often subtle nature makes it excellent for office and casual wear, as it's unlikely to offend. While not overtly sporty, its invigorating accords suit an active lifestyle. However, its understated character means it's less suited for formal events or a stand-out date night.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

Declarable under EU Annex III

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Bitter orange peel Citrus Aurantium Amara Peel Oil from Neroli
  • Neroli Citrus Aurantium Amara Flower Oil from Neroli

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Imagine salty sea spray mingling with the fresh zest of bergamot and bright citrus, carried on a cool breeze. A whisper of neroli softens the marine heart, which is grounded by earthy cypress and cedar, while seaweed and ambergris lend an authentic, slightly rugged coastal essence. It's a breath of fresh, ozonic air, clean and invigorating yet strangely comforting.
