Paragon | Extrait de Parfum

Paragon transcends the skin, reaching deep into the soul to transport you to a dimension of plenitude. It embodies the botanical essence of Palo Santo and White Sage, sacred plants revered for their protective and purifying powers, whose use has been secretly passed down through initiation ceremonies dating back to the first lines of Inca shamans. A vibrant, multifaceted creation, Paragon unfolds with the calming influence of Bergamot and Lavender, perfectly balanced by the invigorating strength of Black Pepper. This harmonious blend stimulates the soul, opens the heart, and creates a protective aura around the physical, emotional, and spiritual bodies. PARAGON empowers you to embrace serenity and awaken your inner harmony.

Initio Parfums Privés, founded in 2015 by the Sprecher Berrier Group under the guidance of Julien Sprecher and Axel Berrier, has rapidly carved a distinctive niche within the luxury fragrance industry. Rooted in French perfumery traditions and enhanced by its founders' extensive experience in the Middle Eastern and Near Eastern markets, Initio uniquely emphasizes the emotional and transformative power of scents, aiming to influence mood, behavior, and self-perception through sophisticated olfactory experiences.

The brand is renowned for its diverse collections of niche, unisex fragrances, each carefully crafted to evoke specific emotional responses. Notable collections include Black Gold, Magnetic Blend, The Absolutes, The Carnal Blends, and The Hedonist. Signature scents like Oud for Greatness, featuring oud, lavender, and patchouli, and Side Effect, an enticing blend of saffron, rum, and vanilla, illustrate Initio's commitment to bold, luxurious, and emotionally compelling fragrances.

Positioned firmly within the high-end market, Initio Parfums Privés distributes its fragrances through luxury retail partners and its official platforms. The brand’s status was further solidified in 2023 when acquired by Advent International, significantly boosting its global presence. Despite mixed customer reviews, particularly regarding longevity and projection, Initio maintains a devoted following among fragrance enthusiasts who appreciate its distinct approach to perfumery, blending mystical allure with modern sophistication.
