The warm, aromatic breath of Mediterranean pines
Chloé Atelier des Fleurs Sous les Pins Eau de Parfum pays tribute to Porquerolles — an island where sun‑warmed pine trees, coastal winds, and resinous green scents shape a landscape unlike any other. Using an innovative extraction technique, it captures the island’s living imprint: heated pine needles, a woody breeze rising from the earth, and the invigorating clarity of eucalyptus carried through the air. The result is a warm, woody‑aromatic fragrance that feels both grounding and luminous — like walking beneath Mediterranean pines at the height of summer.
- a woody aromatic fragrance for both men and women
- part of the Mediterranean Essences within the Chloé Atelier des Fleurs collection
- composed by perfumer Quentin Bisch
Composition of the fragrance:
Sous les Pins Eau de Parfum opens with pine needle absolute, sharp and sun‑drenched, lifted by the sparkling brightness of bergamot. An Isle of Porquerolles Scent Trek™ note adds a vivid sense of place, echoing the radiant air of the island’s byways. The fragrance then moves into cool, resinous eucalyptus, aromatic myrtle, and dry, elegant cypress — a trio that brings crisp clarity and natural strength.
As the composition unfolds, Ambrofix™ introduces warm, contemporary woods, while benzoin resinoid adds a soft, balsamic glow. Together they leave a lingering impression of heat, resin, and grounded serenity — the signature breath of Mediterranean pines.
Story of the fragrance:
Atelier des Fleurs Sous les Pins Eau de Parfum belongs to the Mediterranean Essences, a line inspired by the intimate South that shaped Chloé’s founder, Gaby Aghion. Rather than offering postcard nostalgia, the collection reveals the region’s authentic olfactory footprint — sun, resin, salt, heat, and the quiet power of coastal landscapes. Sous les Pins is the only fragrance in the collection that captures a true in‑situ scent, gathered directly from nature through innovative extraction.
The bottle reflects this heritage: its undulating pleated glass pays homage to Chloé’s iconic plissé soleil, while the warm green hue mirrors the lush pine forests of the Mediterranean coast. The textured cap, reminiscent of sun‑touched sand, completes this expression of effortless, timeless elegance.
