Etat Libre d’Orange is an ambitious, audacious, passionate and exuberant perfumery brand. It was founded by Etienne de Swardt and named after its birthplace, an ancient autonomous sovereign republic in South Africa, first inhabited by the royal family of the Netherlands.
A land of beauty, culture contrasts and feelings. A savage and unpredictable place, independent and unrestrained. Even though it ended in 1902 its attitude lives on at this brand.
This brand offers elegant, provocative and luxurious perfumes. Creations that break the rules symbolizing freedom of expression, an idea represented also by the brand’s logo. Moreover, in the elaboration process there are no restrictions on creativity, raw materials or expense.
Etat Libre d’Orange, a declaration of independence.

The curtain rises on a state at the corner of 69 rue des Archives, in the Marais, Paris. A place that is like a frontier, where the old world ends and the new world begins. The pale moon can be seen lowering over the towers of Notre Dame in the distance. A man and a woman are in a perfumery, surrounded by bottles. He has yielded in submission to a fallen sovereign and is condemned to the ultimate fate. She is the new soul, the new role, she is desirable and she has conquered. She is the denunciation, a touch condescending. The fluttering of her eyelashes declares she is the one whose hour of glory has arrived, a scent testing blotter in hand.

"- EXIT THE KING, a perfume to dream of entropy? Etienne, you're rambling, you have finally lost your mind. Entropy has nothing to do with perfume.
- Yes Lola, you heard correctly. EXIT THE KING, a perfume to dream about entropy. Don’t you think entropy is nice?
- Perched on the scaffold before the guillotine, you speak these three words like a farewell to the troubled world.
- There's nothing for you to understand, innocent child. This is about making a perfume like a Loire castle, a perfume that could rise higher than the castle of Blois, higher than the terrace where the last Valois watched the sun set in its glory. And then disappear, die, as if by magic before the fall. With the whisper of a kiss at the moment of its glory, and then a humble return to something else. A perfume of magnificence, love and goodness for the new world, and of forgetting the old and overwhelming powers. Resolutely chypre.
- Welcome to the new world, you mean?
- Yes Lola, provided it's modern and eternally chypre like this perfume."
EXIT THE KING.

Top Notes: The initial impression is a burst of freshness and spice. Timur pepper JE™ delivers a vibrant, grapefruit-like zest with warm, peppery undertones. A unique Soap Foam Accord, composed of aldehydes and musk, creates a clean, airy sensation, reminiscent of luxurious lather. Pink pepper JE™ adds a subtle rosy spiciness, completing the bright and invigorating opening.
Heart Notes: As the fragrance evolves, a floral bouquet emerges. Jasmine e-pure JE™ offers a radiant, clean floralcy. Rose Superessence contributes a classic, romantic touch, while a Lily-of-the-valley Accord introduces a delicate, spring-like sweetness. This floral heart balances the initial freshness with a touch of elegance and femininity.
Base Notes: The final dry-down reveals a warm, earthy, and woody foundation. Patchouli provides an grounding, slightly sweet, and herbaceous aroma. Moss Absolute adds a deep, forest-like earthiness. A smooth Sandalwood Accord lends creamy warmth, while Orcanox™, a modern musk molecule, imparts a long-lasting, sensual, and velvety finish, ensuring a memorable and captivating trail.
