Description:
Althaïr Exclusif by Parfums de Marly is a luxurious amber woody gourmand fragrance introduced in 2026 as a richer interpretation of the original Althaïr. Inspired by the elegance and musical heritage of 18th-century French court life, the composition explores the contrast between indulgent sweetness, aromatic spices and refined woody warmth.

The fragrance opens with bright bergamot, complemented by the almond-like sweetness of amaretto and the distinctive warmth of saffron. As it develops, cinnamon and cardamom introduce a sophisticated spiciness, while orange blossom lends a soft floral character. Praline adds a creamy, confectionery richness that complements the fragrance's central vanilla accord.

In the base, an intensified Bourbon vanilla note blends with guaiac wood and Ambrox, creating a smooth, warm and subtly woody finish. Althaïr Exclusif offers a more gourmand-focused expression of the Althaïr signature, balancing sweetness with spice and woody depth.

Please note, when ordering a decant size, you will receive the original fragrance in a glass vial atomizer, not the bottle pictured above.
