More about Juliette Has a Gun Not a Perfume
Not a Perfume by Juliette Has a Gun is the 2010 eau de parfum that made the Paris house famous. Romano Ricci built it around a single molecule, Cetalox, a soft ambergris-like material, instead of a classic pyramid of top, heart and base notes. The result is one clean, woody and ambery musk that melts into the skin and stays close to the body, warm and quietly radiant. A provocative answer to traditional perfumery, it remains the house's best-selling scent and an easy everyday signature in any season.
