Ormaie

Papier Carbone Eau de Parfum

Papier Carbone by Ormaie is a fragrance born from the shared memories of Baptiste Bouygues and his mother, Marie-Lise Jonak (the founders). Bright bergamot and coffee recall lively mornings in the classroom, while cardamom and badian add a playful spice, evoking childhood snacks and carefree afternoons. 
 
A heart of clary sage, lavandin, and coriander conjures the school library’s quiet warmth, with patchouli, Haitian vetiver, and guaiac wood grounding it in the comforting scent of old books and paper. Topped with a cheerful yellow cap that reminiscent of Baptiste’s toys, this fragrance is a joyful ode to childhood memories, elegantly layered and timeless.
