Bare skin gleaming with sun lotion, the sun lifting a gentle blend of tropical frangipani and milky sandalwood towards appreciative noses. Buttery and beautiful.
All about this fragrance
Vibe check
The mood is the quiet pleasure of lingering after a swim, when sun lotion still scents the skin and there is no reason to hurry indoors. Coconut and frangipani give the fragrance a relaxed, tactile presence rather than the brisk energy of a conventional summer fresh scent.
How to wear
A natural fit for spring and summer, especially when the air is warm enough to bring its creamy floral character forward. Start with one or two sprays on exposed skin; use a lighter application in high heat or close quarters to keep the coconut and milky sandalwood from feeling too enveloping.
Who it’s for
For those drawn to solar florals, coconut and the nostalgic scent of sun lotion. Its sweet, lactonic texture will appeal to wearers who prefer softness and warm skin effects to sharp citrus freshness or dry, austere woods.

The nose
Julien Rasquinet is known for expressive compositions that balance distinctive textures with a clear olfactory structure. Trained under Pierre Bourdon, he has created fragrances including Masque Milano Russian Tea and BDK Parfums Crème de Cuir. For 1/.7, his palette takes a solar direction, bringing coconut and flowers into a soft sandalwood-and-musk base.
Collaborators
Gérald Ghislain, the house’s founder, shaped the Blue Bottle collection’s conceptual framework: an abstract approach intended to free the wearer from meanings imposed by conventional fragrance names and imagery. That creative direction provides the setting for 1/.7’s theme of happiness.
Histoires de Parfums’s story
Histoires de Parfums approaches fragrance as an olfactory library, translating historical characters, significant years, poetry and music into compositions worn on skin. Its Blue Bottle collection offers a counterpoint to those narrative perfumes, replacing a fixed subject with abstraction and room for personal interpretation.
This is Not a Blue Bottle 1/.7 – Happiness’s concept
The Blue Bottle collection takes its conceptual cue from René Magritte’s The Treachery of Images, questioning the relationship between an object and its representation. Within that framework, 1/.7 explores happiness through solar warmth and creamy floral textures, with the number seven adding an association with luck.
Extra info
“Happiness” is the fragrance’s theme rather than part of its main official title. The collection’s blue color was chosen to suggest emptiness and infinity, leaving space for the wearer’s own associations rather than prescribing a particular smell.
