Clément Marx

Clément Marx is a French perfumer whose signature lies in rich, textured gourmand and woody compositions that stay sophisticated rather than sugary. For Bon Parfumeur he created the acclaimed 502 Iris Cartagena duo — a velvety iris-and-cocoa accord that he interpreted at two different intensities.

The Eau de Parfum is the fresher, more aerated reading: mandarin and petitgrain lift an infusion of rum and cocoa, buttery iris and sandalwood are cooled by a breath of eucalyptus, and papyrus, vetiver and coffee dry it down. The Extrait de Parfum turns the same idea plush and indulgent, layering Antilles rum, West African cocoa, sugar cane and roasted coffee for a warm, lingering trail. Across both, his hallmark is balance — indulgent, almost edible materials framed by dry woods and aromatic freshness.

His fragrances suit anyone who loves cozy, characterful gourmands with real polish rather than dessert-like sweetness, and they move easily from day into evening in cooler weather. The 502 duo has quickly become one of the house's most talked-about limited editions. Discover Clément Marx's fragrances at Redolia Perfumery below.
