“Faire le mur” means “going AWOL” en Français, and if you’re going to make a break for it, you might as well do it fragrantly with this fruity-floral escapade. Heady jasmine and spicy lily get juicy thanks to orange and pear. Osmanthus, with its delicate apricot tea facet, bridges flowers to fruits.
All about this fragrance
Vibe check
This is the scent of slipping out into the evening with your plans still unwritten, when the air is warm and the city feels briefly permissive. It suits close, animated settings where its fruity-floral brightness can feel flirtatious rather than loud, leaving a soft, sensual trace behind you.
How to wear
Best in mild to warm weather, where its pear, jasmine and musky base can stay luminous without becoming heavy. A moderate application is enough: one or two sprays give a smooth, intimate trail, while a little more brings out its juicier floral lift in the air.
Who it’s for
For those who like fruity-floral perfumes with a sensual edge, especially when they are airy rather than sugary. It will appeal to wearers who enjoy jasmine, osmanthus and musk, and who prefer a modern, slightly mischievous scent with a polished finish.

The nose
Ilias Ermenidis and Hamid Merati-Kashani are the duo behind Faire Le Mur, bringing together two distinct contemporary styles. Ermenidis is known for polished, luminous compositions with a smooth, modern structure, while Merati-Kashani often works with generous texture and a confident, sensual signature. In this fragrance, their approach reads as a carefully balanced fruity-floral: jasmine and lily are given lift by pear and orange, while osmanthus and musks soften the edges. The result fits Maison Matine’s collaborative, graphic way of working with perfumers who favor clarity, character and wearability over heavy ornament.
Collaborators
Maison Matine’s founders, Marie Kellou and Arthur Ponroy, shaped the brand’s creative direction by building a house that rejects perfume clichés and works collaboratively with perfumers and illustrators. For Faire Le Mur, that framework supports a fragrance designed as a playful, boundary-breaking night escape rather than a conventional luxury statement.
Maison Matine’s story
Maison Matine is a French house built around simplicity, diversity, creativity and commitment, with a clear rejection of opulence and sexist perfume codes. Its fragrances are conceived as graphic, accessible and collaborative, often paired with illustrated packaging and a responsible approach that includes vegan formulas and recyclable materials.
Faire Le Mur’s concept
Faire Le Mur, meaning “going AWOL,” was launched in 2025 as part of Maison Matine’s Night Fever Collection Part II. The concept leans into the idea of breaking away for one liberated night, with a fruity-floral composition that turns jasmine, pear and osmanthus into a scent of risk, freedom and escape.
