302 Groovy AmberAmber Powdery Eau de Parfum

302 Groovy Amber by Bon Parfumeur is an amber, powdery, woody niche eau de parfum, unisex, created by perfumer Sidonie Lancesseur. This fragrance was previously called 302 Ambre - Iris - Santal.

A house where the number indicates the olfactory family

Bon Parfumeur is a Parisian house founded in 2017 by Ludovic Bonneton, a passionate collector who became artistic director. The project was born from two things: his return from Colombia, where he lived surrounded by the scents of cocoa, coffee, and tropical flowers, and his meeting with the great perfumer Raymond Chaillan, who showed him that perfume could be described through the five senses rather than through words. Its distinctive feature is its numbering system, which is far from arbitrary: the first digit indicates the olfactory family, while the following two indicate the fragrance's position within that family. The creations are designed from the outset to be mixed and layered — the Mix & Match principle. Each fragrance is entrusted to a different perfumer and is born from a precise image brought to the studio by Bonneton. Everything is made in France.

An opening of pink pepper, geranium, and cardamom

Pink pepper opens with a spicy, fruity note, geranium brings its rosy greenery, and cardamom adds its peppery freshness. A lively, almost crackling start — these are not the notes one expects atop an amber.

A heart of incense, vanilla, and iris

Incense establishes its fresh smoke, vanilla its roundness, and iris powders the whole with its velvety facet. A play of warmth and restraint, like a room being incensed.

A base of amber, sandalwood, and musk

Amber finally takes center stage, warm and enveloping, softened by the milky sandalwood and musk. The trail is comfortable and lasts a long time.

The house's signature

An amber that makes you want to dance. The perfumer describes the brief: "Ludovic described his creative intention to me with a precise memory in mind. He wanted a fragrance that made you want to dance. We thought of lively ingredients, ingredients that carry you away." The starting image is musical: the swinging atmosphere of Duke Ellington. And this explains its unusual construction — amber is usually a static material, warm and still; here, pink pepper and cardamom set it in motion right from the opening. It is worth noting that Sidonie Lancesseur is also the nose behind several Kilian bestsellers, as well as 1270 by Frapin.

For whom, for what occasions?

Amber, powdery, and woody, this eau de parfum is for those who love comfortable ambers but want them lighter than usual. It is at its best from autumn to winter, by day or by night, and is equally well suited to women and men.
