\n No one loves creating a clever and classy new brand more than the French, and a fresh marque that seems destined to attract attention is Monravel.<\/p>\n

\"FrenchFrench duo Constance and Marguerite Monravel – Monravel<\/p>\n

\u00a0
Created by a French duo named Constance and Marguerite Monravel, this novel brand is all about the olfactive universe of plants and how scents can evoke\u00a0memories and emotions to holistically make us all feel better.
\u00a0
If that sounds far-fetched, then you haven\u2019t smelled one of Monravel\u2019s six scents which debut commercially this weekend on the ground floor of Paris\u2019 toniest department store, Au Bon March\u00e9.<\/p>\n

Their first inspirations have been crafted into six all-black glass candles with names like Citrus Maxima, which riffs on the lush Mediterranean gardens at Cap Martin; or Ode<\/a> au Cypr\u00e8s, which evokes sun drenched Etruscan cypress gardens.
\u00a0
Each carries a tag line that reads: \u201cParfums et Rem\u00e8des\u201d meaning perfumes and remedies, suggesting the healing power of nature.<\/p>\n

\"MonravelMonravel describes its products as \u201cParfums et Rem\u00e8des\u201d – Monravel<\/p>\n

\u00a0
Turns out that the family have deep roots in that area, seeing as a venerable relative, Louis de Monravel, was a famous 19th\u00a0century botanist. Copies of his original manuscripts with gently pressed and preserved leaves, sit proudly beside a display of the candles in their 6th\u00a0arrondissement apartment: a home that dates from before Louis XIV.
\u00a0
\u201cWe want to build\u00a0a fragrance house inspired by the power of nature, and rooted in my ancestor\u2019s botanical heritage,\u201d explains Constance, a graduate of Bocconi and Harvard University, with a long career in international hospitality.<\/p>\n

Marguerite, a pharmacist who enjoys cultivating her own garden in Brittany, adds: \u201cFrom my botanical journeys and study of herbal medicines and botany I am convinced plants have a certain restorative power.\u201d
\u00a0
Each candle- with other names like Sancta Myrrha, formulated from myrrh to sooth the nerves, and Eclat du Kerla, which plays on the harmony of Ayurvedic rituals- is priced at \u20ac95, including a glass top.
\u00a0
The initial offering\u00a0also includes a very unusual white chalk-rock set, with both stone and scent, costing \u20ac70. The gradual use of weeks of scent imparts a hyper lasting fragrance into the rock.
\u00a0
The next step in their plan is to create a fully-fledged perfume for the body. For now, as of October 15 one can buy a Monravel candle online or pick one up this weekend at Au Bon March\u00e9.
\u00a0
When it comes to luxury, the French never stop coming up with smart ideas.
