No, this Louis Vuitton adventure is not all about travel this time. It’s an olfactory one that gives you the chance to experience that rush of departure before heading towards the unknown and intimate emotions that let you rediscover yourself through nothing but a scent. It sounds simple but it is way far from being so. Louis Vuitton’s new fragrance “Cœur Battant” is a celebration of that singular breath of vital energy and the spark that drives to live each moment intensely.

Like the heartbeat after which it is named, every raw element this fragrance is made of pulses in unison with the others. Written in perfumer Jacques Cavallier’s atelier in Grasse, this majestic woody floral accord earns its special place among the Maison’s creations. Soft opulence comes together with freshness and sensuality.

An interplay between darkness and light – à la Perfumer Jacques Cavallier Belletrud, of course – sees the light through the radiance of Egyptian jasmine enriched with the green and animalistic facets of narcissus, the elegance of patchouli and moss, the deliciousness and voluptuousness of pear, the warmth of ambrette seeds and the charm of Cascalone. And it all leads to a pure line and a clear composition that make the perfumer’s signature so distinctive and instantly recognizable.
