Elegance at a gallop
The creation of Parfums de Marly is of noble origin. Its name is Kalan. Its robe shines in fiery red. Its luxury is captivating. Those who can tame it will be free. A lover of rare materials, an enthusiast of elation. A modern man from another time. In it, every contrast is luxury, that is its privilege. This perfume for a 21st-century aesthete oscillates between light and shadow. It does not follow current trends. It stands on the fringes of fragrance families and takes the best from all of them.
A touch of fougère, masculine and particularly refined.
"For Parfums de Marly, Kalan means coming home; it captures the reason why our customers are loyal to us. Yes, you can be both strong and sensitive. Yes, you can appreciate classic perfumery and still be modern. This particularly recognisable fragrance is easy to adopt as your own. It ennobles the skin it comes into contact with: this is fundamentally a characteristic of high-quality materials." – Julien Sprecher, founder of Parfums de Marly
Noble, powerful, charismatic...
...like the thoroughbred it is named after, one of the most famous from the stables of Louis XV, known for its power, speed and agility.
...like the scarlet bottle that presents it — needless to say, red is the colour of passion and luxury.
...like its fragrance, proud at first, but gradually allowing itself to be conquered.
"When I create a perfume, I want it to be well-rounded, with clear, seductive top notes and an immediately perceptible base. It could also be described as an aura. The harmony between the materials and the accords creates this olfactory music that is our trademark. Kalan is our 26th fragrance, pushing the boundaries of technical feasibility." – Julien Sprecher, founder of Parfums de Marly.
