VEZELAY’S EFFIGY PERFUME!

The foundations of the Eau de Vézelay contain, like its Basilica, myrrh and incense. Its heart blossoms with rose and geranium. Its head exhales the red mandarin, an expression of its strength and character. A mystical perfume of remarkable freshness.

HISTORY

Vézelay, the Eternal, sanctuary city of Yonne.
Invested for millennia, because the Gallic and Romans had spotted the large rocky spur and implanted the grapevine.
Vézelay, the middle age city, with her towers and ramparts, her narrow lanes.
Vézelay, the conqueror, marked by Saint Bernard and his ardour.
Vézelay, the Saint, patronised by Mary Magdalen, famous for her basilica, a splendour of Roman Art.
Vézelay, the Sacred, thanks to the prayers and intentions of the immense crowds of pilgrims who have been climbing its hill for centuries wether it be for the Saint and her mysterious relics in the crypt, or to take the path of Assisi, and, more important still, for all those who follow the Way towards the Compostela.

Vézelay is a hotspot of transit but numerous are those who come back to it, again and again, for its particular light, for its timeless atmosphere, for its artists and its inspired souls and also… who knows? … for the scents of the earth mingled with the perfume of lime trees and walnut trees, roses and numerous hollyhocks bordering its rocky alleys.
