history
Seduction has long been a magical affair.
In their books of spells, alchemists recorded the formulas for their love potions. These precious instructions, forbidden from distribution, were passed covertly, sous le manteau.
sous le manteau seeks to bring these treasured creations to a new era of lovers. Conceived by founder Olivia Bransbourg and renewed and enhanced for the modern sensibility by celebrated perfumer Nathalie Feisthauer, each sous le manteau scent is the latest chapter in a centuries-long tale of intimacy, seduction, and desire -- all the things we hold closest to our hearts.
Discover the world, sous le manteau.

limoges
A porcelain talisman is included with every large bottle of sous le manteau.
Meant to be scented as a means to extend your fragrance journey – worn around the neck or the wrist, tucked into a pillow case, pocket, handbag, or drawer of inmates, or perhaps gifted to a lover as a token of affection.
Our talismans are crafted in Limoges, France in the traditional fashion.
