STORY OF AILES DES ANGES
The story of the founding of Ailes des Anges is the story of our founder and perfumer - Alen Fakhory. It all started back then, in early childhood...
Alen spent his early childhood in his grandmother's house, in the south of France. And this wonderful time will forever remain in his memory.
Like my mother, Alen's grandmother was French. In her youth, she worked at one of the factories of the famous Grasse, whose products were purchased by eminent perfume houses.
More than anything, my grandmother loved little Alen, flowers and, of course, perfume.
A huge number of extraordinary flowers grew in her garden: mallow, clematis, roses, pelargoniums, lilies, irises, lilies of the valley, marigolds, begonias, lavender, tulips, chrysanthemums and dahlias. Probably, it would be easier to say what flowers she did not have. She spent whole days in the garden looking after her favourites.
Vials with essential oils of flowers and plants were filled with grandmother's work room - the only one into which little Alen was strictly prohibited from entering without her grandmother. There she conjured in the evenings, periodically writing something in a thick, worn notebook, and after a while the shelf was replenished with another perfume creation. Then she presented them to all her relatives and numerous friends.
Grandmother also collected angel figurines. Plaster, ivory, paper, wood - angels were literally everywhere.
Why do you need so many angels? - asked little Alen.
And these are my assistants - answered the grandmother. At night, when you sleep, the angels fly into the garden, flying through it all night, they absorb the scent of flowers into their snow-white wings, and when they return, they shake it off into a special dish that I leave for them.
Alen even arranged a night ambush on the angels, after which he was found sleeping on the bare floor at the front door.
Whether it was his grandmother's trick or his own rich imagination, he never understood. But the wings of all her angels really smelled of flowers.
His grandmother told him the stories of the birth of famous perfume houses, biographies of the best "noses" in France and about their most famous creations. Alen listened to her with his mouth open. Grandma was an amazing storyteller.
It was time, Alen grew up, and with him grew and strengthened the endless love of fragrances transmitted from his grandmother. He just couldn't help but become a perfumer. After some time, he was able to unite like-minded people around him and found his own brand.
And in memory of his beloved grandmother and his amazing childhood, he named it: "Les ailes des anges", which is translated from French as the wings of angels.
