Tiare de Tahiti Eau de Parfum

Tiare de Tahiti by Perris Monte Carlo

“When Paul Gauguin discovered French Polynesia, it wasn’t only the light that captivated him, but also a discreet and enchanting flower. White, sensual, and intensely fragrant, the Tiaré blooms like a secret under the Pacific sun. Worn behind the ear or slipped into the hair, it whispers stories of softness and distant lands — a scent that lingers with you long after…”       

Tahiti, the largest island of French Polynesia, lies in the heart of the South Pacific Ocean—an untouched paradise shaped by volcanic landscapes, lush vegetation, and crystal-clear lagoons. Its unique geographical isolation and rich, fertile soil create the perfect environment for exceptional natural raw materials to flourish.

Among these treasures are some of the most precious ingredients in perfumery. Tahiti has already inspired us with the richness of its Vanille de Tahiti. Today, we continue this journey, drawing once again from the island’s extraordinary biodiversity, where nature expresses itself in its most authentic and radiant form.

The inspiration for this fragrance begins at its source: the Tiaré flower of Tahiti.

The Tiaré flower carries deep cultural and emotional significance. It is a symbol of purity, hospitality, love and welcome, often used in traditional ceremonies, perfumes, and as a personal adornment. Worn behind the ear, it can even convey relationship status—on the right if one is single, on the left if taken—making it a subtle language of love and connection.

This fragrance is built around that essence—an homage to the raw material in its most genuine expression.

More than composition, it is immersion. A journey to Tahiti, guided by the singular beauty of Tiaré.

Traditionally it is processed by macerating fresh flowers in coconut oil to produce monoi, a method that captures the softest, most milky facets of the flower.

In perfumery we use the essential oil extracted from the flower.

Hand-harvested at dawn, when its scent is at its most delicate and expressive, the Tiaré reveals a uniquely creamy floral profile. Its aroma carries the softness of white petals, the warmth of tropical air, and a subtle sweetness that feels both pure and enveloping.
