Parisian subculture moves through private ateliers and quiet backrooms rather than mass campaigns. On November 18, 2026, independent perfume house Notes de Bas de Paje and jeweller Tant d’Avenir drop a joint project named “Filigrane” at Dover Street Parfums Market in Paris. The release bridges two distinct disciplines through shared restraint, presenting a concentrated perfume extract alongside a solid silver and citrine pendant. If you follow contemporary Paris style, you recognize both names from cultural circuits where music, fashion, and independent design converge.
The title refers directly to technical tradition. In goldsmithing, filigree describes interlaced, soldered metal wires. In papermaking, a watermark appears when you lift a sheet against the light. Both creators focus on concealed markers rather than loud branding. Notes de Bas de Paje constructs scents like footnotes in a volume, while Tant d’Avenir stamps micro hallmarks into precious metals. As the two studios note, “The imperceptible has its own ways of never disappearing.”
Perfumer Camille Chemardin formulated the scent profile after composing Carambolage for the perfume house. The formula blends raw wood notes with pungent spices, balancing iris, eucalyptus, pepper, cade, myrrh, cedarwood, saffron, papyrus, turpentine, leather, and sandalwood. You experience a tension between balsamic resin, dry paper, and mineral smoke. Beside the flacon, Tant d’Avenir presents a limited pendant from the studio near Place de la République. Founder Quentin Pontonnier shaped the pendant from 925 sterling silver, mounting an amber-toned citrine stone on a matching silver chain.
Pontonnier founded Tant d’Avenir in 2017 after studying at École Boulle and working inside Parisian fine jewellery workshops, including Chanel. His unisex pieces dressed musicians and performers like Damso, Sofiane Pamart, Bilal Hassani, and Lous and the Yakuza, earning coverage in The Face and Numéro. Meanwhile, former legal professionals Alice Gensse and Pierre-Jr Menana established Notes de Bas de Paje to treat perfumery as publishing. The brand name fuses the French term for page with the founders' initials. Their catalog, housed in book-shaped boxes, sells across seventy global locations, from H. Lorenzo in Los Angeles to 10 Corso Como in Milan and Seoul.
You acquire the objects together or individually starting November 18, 2026. The 50 ml perfume extract costs €230, while the limited sterling silver pendant costs €300. In-person sales take place at Dover Street Parfums Market on 11 bis rue Elzévir, as well as the Tant d’Avenir shop at 44 rue Albert Thomas in Paris. Online orders ship directly through the official Tant d’Avenir web store and the Notes de Bas de Paje digital shopfront.
