Jeroboam Paris Perfumes – Enigmatic Musk Extracts

Jeroboam Paris: musk extrait as a universal language

Jeroboam Paris, a house founded in 2015 by François Hénin and Vanina Muracciole

Jeroboam Paris fragrances were born in 2015 from the meeting of François Hénin, founder of Jovoy Paris, and the independent perfumer Vanina Muracciole. The starting point was a single creation, Origino, a concentrated musk base in extrait de parfum whose exploration became, as told on the official history page, the guiding thread of a fully fledged brand. The name is a playful nod: a jeroboam is a 3-litre bottle, whereas the house chose a compact flacon — the founding oxymoron of a perfumery built entirely on concentration.

The iconic signatures of the Jeroboam house

The house's pantheon brings together Gozo, a floral oriental of saffron and tuberose that has become the brand's best-seller, Kun Amo, a fruity chypre of raspberry and almond, Insulo, a pared-back vanilla oriental built around jasmine, Your Oudhness, a sumptuous oud made for winter, and Vespero, a woody leather scent for the evening. Signatures that have earned Jeroboam its place among lovers of niche perfumery.

The Jeroboam olfactory signature: the musks of Vanina Muracciole

Each extrait is built around a cocktail of musks — white, clean and enveloping, or darker and more animalic — signed by Vanina Muracciole, the house perfumer. The extrait concentration deliberately amplifies the musky base for remarkable longevity, while saffron, tuberose, vanilla or oud give each one its own relief. The names are borrowed from Esperanto — Origino the origin, Insulo the island, Ligno the wood — because for Jeroboam, musk is a “Lingvo Internacia”, an international language that every skin understands.

Who should wear Jeroboam fragrances, and when?

The house is unisex: every creation can be worn by anyone. The floral extraits accompany everyday life and sunny days, while the woody and oriental compositions take over in autumn and in the evening. If you love Jeroboam, also explore Jovoy Paris, François Hénin's other house, Akro, Olivier Cresp's gourmand niche brand, and Initio Parfums Privés, three signatures of real character at Soleil d'Or.

How to choose your Jeroboam Paris fragrance?

Hesitating between the power of Gozo and the gourmand charm of Kun Amo is perfectly normal: an extrait is chosen on the skin. Our made-to-measure discovery box (€29) brings together 5 samples of 2 ml of your choice, hand-prepared from the official juices — ideal for wearing several Jeroboam extraits for a few days before choosing your bottle. The house also offers its own discovery set, and our Lille boutique welcomes you for a guided fragrance consultation.
