Marie Schnirer: restraint in service of emotion
Portrait of the perfumer
Marie Schnirer champions a contemporary perfumery, where the legibility of accords prevails over display. Her compositions seek the right balance: an enveloping woody note without heaviness, a spice that warms without overpowering, a flower that gives structure. This restrained elegance yields modern, wearable and instantly recognisable fragrances.
Marie Schnirer's creations at Soleil d'Or
For BDK PARFUMS, she created Nuit de Sable, a warm spicy floral. For JOVOY PARFUMS, she composes Pavillon Rouge, an oriental woody, and 21 Conduit St, an aromatic woody.
Woods, spices and flowers in balance
Her range favours the woody, spicy and floral families, around materials such as pepper, rose and cedar.

Marie Schnirer at Soleil d'Or, a Lille perfumery since 1953
Founded in 1953 by Jeanne Muyllaert on Lille's Grand'Place, Soleil d'Or is an independent perfumery passed down through the generations. Hubert Maes (third generation) steered it towards niche perfumery; today his daughters Victorine and Apolline Maes (fourth generation) uphold this standard at 22 rue de la Clef, Lille (59800), with expert advice, guided trials and our olfactory families guide.
