Luxe Calme Volupté is a recurring verse taken from Baudelaire’s beautiful poem "Invitation au Voyage":
"There all is order and beauty,
Luxury, peace, and pleasure"
In this poem Baudelaire invites his lover to join him to an exotic place where they can live in calmness and peace, still reflecting his decadent aesthetic.
Luxe Calme Volupté is also the name of a major painting by Henri Matisse conveying the same ideas that have inspired Francesca's perfumes: the contraposition of a calm and peaceful character from one side, and sensuous and decadent elements on the other.
Francesca Bianchi created the fragrance when she felt the need of offering not a challenging, divisive creation but something which could bring comfort to the spirit, an invitation to connecting to oneself and temporarily forget about the daily concerns.
