Mitsouko

University Project

Reimagining Mitsouko perfume by Guerlain. Mitsouko was released in 1919 and got it’s name from the novel ”La Bataille”, where the main character Mitsouko awaits to see if her husband or lover returns from the war.

Described only in the relation to men, I wanted to give Mitsouko a room of her own. Who would she be today, 100 years later? She couldn’t possibly still be a woman waiting for a man.
