Jeroboam Paris: enigmatic musk extraits in 30 ml flacons
François Hénin, Vanina Muracciole and the founding of the maison
Jeroboam Paris was founded in 2015 by François Hénin (founder of Jovoy) and perfumer Vanina Muracciole, around a clever concept: musk-focused extraits in compact 30 ml flacons. Where most luxury niche houses cultivate the 100 ml bottle (with consequent prices), Jeroboam allows the discovery of demanding olfactive compositions in a more accessible format. A line where the format is itself a creative posture — the niche made accessible without sacrificing demand.
The maison's signature scents
The Jeroboam pantheon brings together Gozo, Kun Amo, Hauto, Ligna and Origino — a roster of compact extraits where the musk dominates the writing in clear, dense, accessible compositions.
The 30 ml as creative posture
Jeroboam cultivates a logic almost unprecedented in luxury niche: the compact format as posture of accessibility. The maison's flacon — a small black 30 ml bottle in geometric design — affirms that haute parfumerie can also exist in a posture closer to the daily wearer. A line that addresses both novices in luxury niche (in the role of accessible introduction) and connoisseurs (in the role of olfactive complement to the main collection).
Who is Jeroboam Paris for, and when to wear it?
Jeroboam Paris speaks to lovers of musk-focused contemporary niche perfumery, who appreciate musk-anchored compositions and the accessible format. The house is unisex. Creations sit in the musky, oriental, woody and ambery families. If you enjoy Jeroboam, you will also want to explore Jovoy (other Hénin maison), New Notes Hologram and Initio Carnal Blends — three other contemporary musk signatures at Soleil d'Or.

Frequently asked questions about Jeroboam Paris perfumes
Why are Jeroboam perfumes named in Esperanto?
Esperanto is an artificial language created in 1887 by Ludwik Zamenhof with the ambition of creating a universal language. For François Hénin, this choice is a perfect metaphor: musk is the molecule present in almost every perfume in the world, and Jeroboam places musk at the heart of every creation. Musk is therefore also a "Lingvo Internacia" — an international language. Origino = Origin · Gozo = Joy · Vespero = Twilight · Insulo = Island · Hauto = Skin · Unue = First.
Why does Jeroboam only offer perfume extracts?
"The extract has something noble about it, designed for devastating trails." — François Hénin. Jeroboam refuses eaux de parfum or eaux de toilette: the concentration is maximum, trails intense and lasting power exceptional. Every 30 ml flacon is a concentrated olfactory bomb. The pyramid is also deliberately "broken": the base (and thus the musks) is exaggerated for maximum persistence. "A hot-air balloon needs warm air to take off — the top notes are that warm air", explains Vanina Muracciole.
What is the best Jeroboam perfume to start with?
Gozo is the undisputed house best-seller — an opulent oriental floral (tuberose, saffron, geranium, musks) of exceptional power and trail, inspired by the island of Gozo (Malta). Origino is the most musky and most universal entry. Vespero is ideal for lovers of masculine woody. Insulo is perfect for vanilla oriental fans. Our discovery box lets you test your selection.
What does the name Jeroboam mean?
The name Jeroboam is a wink to the jeroboam wine bottle format (3 litres), created in 1725. François Hénin wanted to play on the contrast: the largest format (jeroboam = 3L) meets the smallest flacon (30 ml). It is the founding oxymoron of the brand: the absolute concentrate in the most compact object. A 30 ml perfume extract is the quintessence of perfumery in your pocket.
Are Jeroboam perfumes unisex?
Yes — all Jeroboam perfumes are unisex. Gozo (opulent oriental floral), Hauto (powdery floral), Boha (white gardenia) tend towards the feminine. Vespero (woody leather), Your Oudhness (aromatic oud) tend towards the masculine. But Vanina Muracciole's musky base makes every creation universal on the skin.
