PALME D’HIVER begins in the cold. A brutal New York winter, then a few hours later, almost unreal light, palm trees, the beach and the warm air of Palm Beach. The third stop in Travel Journals 2026 was born from this sudden shift.
A change of climate, a change of pace
What stayed with me was not just the warmth. It was the sense of distance. New York, the noise and the problems suddenly felt very far away. Time slowed down: writing, thinking, walking and letting the day unfold.
PALME D’HIVER seeks to preserve that precise moment. Not a tropical postcard, but a luminous interlude in which you can finally breathe.
A bright, fruity opening
Rose, passion fruit and orange open the fragrance. Passion fruit brings sunlit tension, orange adds radiance, and rose keeps the composition from becoming purely gourmand.
The path to the beach
At the heart, monoi blossom, orange blossom and coconut create a more enveloping sensation. The composition becomes softer and more tactile, like the light at the end of the day.
White musk, ylang-ylang and vanilla then extend the softness. The base is calm, luminous and comforting.
A fruity, floral, sunlit and vanilla-infused home fragrance
PALME D’HIVER has a fruity, floral, sunlit and vanilla-infused signature.
Top notes: rose, passion fruit, orange.
Heart notes: monoi blossom, orange blossom, coconut.
Base notes: white musk, ylang-ylang, vanilla.
The luxury of slowing down
Ultimately, this fragrance is less about Palm Beach than about what the place makes possible: slowing down, gaining perspective, finding a little silence and seeing what you left behind in a different light.
This is also the idea behind KMK PARIS: using home fragrance to transform the perception of a space with one simple gesture.
