Bertrand Duchaufour, The Maharaja and Jodhpur
Bertrand Duchaufour returns with Vaara, his first perfume for Penhaligon’s since Sartorial (2010).
Bertrand travelled to Jodhpur to explore the life of a Maharaja; visiting historic forts, family palaces, exotic gardens and bustling city markets. His journey provided him with an abundance of inspiration for the fragrance and the end result, Vaara, cleverly captures the spirit of this fascinating part of India.
Duchaufour: "He’s at lunch, deconstructing the chutney. He says it could trigger his next perfume. Just like the soup served at Bal Samand Lake Palace in Jodhpur, the night before. “It was so incredible! The combination of tomatoes, apple and cinnamon in the soup...,” says master perfumer Bertrand Duchaufour, in Jodhpur to launch his latest fragrance, Vaara by Penhaligon’s (the legendary British perfume company)."
