The CINQUIÈME SENS team
Being a perfumer is first and foremost about knowing how to smell the air of the time. Every year, we choose a current topic and create a series of skin and ambiance perfumes, in order to express our expertise and creativity.
SET IN THE BITS
The crunchy grass rustles under your feet,
Sports items are arranged here and there.
Yet a smell takes over the room...
The green rectangle is an ambient fragrance that takes us into a football field.
The hespirid notes evoke the dynamism of football, an intense collective sport that imposes significant changes in rhythm.
The green facet of the perfume represents the lawn on which the players express all their talent and bring strong emotions to the spectators.
Finally, the leather facet refers to the ball that circulates throughout the field, from one player to another.
THE GREEN RECTANGLE

A creation of Wilheim GUITTEAUD
The diffusion of this ambient fragrance is ensured by the device LA GUILDE.
ATTACH IT
Before entering the gym, sprinkle some scented talcum powder on your hands. Does this gesture remind you of anything?
In my childhood, I danced intensively to classical and modern jazz. I was hopelessly drawn to a small wooden square on the floor. It was filled with a resin: colophony. I watched the older dancers wearing pointed tips carefully applying it.
For my part, I valiantly dipped my two feet in this resin in slippers, with the firm intention of being able to dance with pointe shoes one day! This represented the ultimate consecration.
The smell of sports is for me that of colophane. It brings me back to beautiful memories where the efforts allowed me to express myself and gain confidence: from the gym to the stage!
COLOPHANE
Head Pin Sylvestre, Bay Rose
Heart : Incense HE, Carrot seeds (powdered aspect of colophony)
Foundation Violette, Cedar, Musk
A creation of Camille LEGUAY
In the premises of Cinquième Sens, a room was specially decorated in honor of our Sport Week, with the participation of two artists:
Valérie QUERUAU LAMERIE She offers the lightness of her wire dancers. A living sculptor, she uses what nourishes her to convey a consciousness. She uses movement and light to animate her works and draws from what touches her, the emotions that give life.
The photographer Enzo ZEYLSTRA They capture the body and its movement, the emotions they convey, which they sweat despite themselves.
THE BIG JUMP
Sit down. You have the choice between three main jumps: the dive, the throw and the obstacle.
THE GREAT JUMP – LE PLONGEON
Taking a step up, looking at the tiny crowd perched high atop its ten meters, the diver focuses. Véronika Rebeka He re-recorded what was happening during that dive.

THE GREAT JUMP – The throw
I’m tight-fitting in my tights, a little too glittery to my taste; a little too made-up too… Anyway, those are the codes.
My competitor’s music resonates; in a few minutes, it’s mine.
I feel like I’ve forgotten everything; the adrenaline is coursing through my veins, pulsing through my body, and making my legs tingly. I need them, after all. I’ve trained too hard to lose them now.
So, I close my eyes one last time and recall the sequence. It’s no longer my brain that drives me, but my past sensations, the memory of my body in space: my proprioception.
I hear my blades crunching on the ice, the exact sound they must produce at every turn, every intersection. I feel the strength of my thighs as I accelerate, the pressure of the wind on my face indicating the right speed to take off and finally jump!
Nothing matters anymore, I’m going into the ice!
ICE DANCE
Bergamot, Roman Chamomile, Precyclemone
Bois de Shiu, Hédione HC, Ylang III
Amber wood, Ambrettolide, Mimosa

THE GREAT JUMP – The OBSTACLE
The emotional bond between a rider and her horse. Bound together in the face of obstacles and adversity.
Isabelle He wanted to represent the very special bond that is established between a rider and his mount, especially his daughter Marion and her horse Illebo.
A unique relationship, which is put to the test during competitions and which is built day by day.
Respect, complicity, fusion. When the muscle and strength of the horse are the extension of the rider’s conviction.
A powerful sense of balance and harmony represented in a perfume.

Musky powdered voile

AFTER THE EFFORT… AGAIN THE EFFORT!
The victory is a relief. But before that there was: the repeated training sessions, the many failures, the physical and even moral pain when mental strength has to take precedence over the strength of an exhausted body. The matches that last for hours, the sweat, and the care provided.
Alice He wanted to translate the multiple efforts into his creation. To draw from the deepest part of himself, to anchor himself in a team, to overcome his fears, and to rebuild: resilience as a new beginning.

TRACE OF THE ALIZES
(Woody, green, powdered)
A great walker, Maureen wanted to recount the sensations of the journey along the GR G1, a sporting circuit for experienced hikers in Guadeloupe.

SOON, THE OLYMPIC GAMES

FLAME

Heart : Fumencens, Nutmeg, Ciste
Foundation : Birch, Patchouli, Tobacco, Styrax
A creation of Camille LEGUAY
This 2.5 kg candle was made by Rama MBAYE (Purae). His inspiration stems from a reflection conducted around the flame in general, and the Olympic flame in particular. Through a play of transparencies, the wax reveals its colors, echoing the inner strength that propels the athlete towards transcendence and self-overcoming.
Laurence Aguerre Around this candle, he has created a joyful and sparkling display that celebrates all the victories and the spirit of celebration of the great events that bring people together. A tribute to hearts that beat, eyes that sparkle and life that vibrates.
Three colors, three stripes, to symbolically represent the three values of Olympism.
