Menta y Menta is inspired by a minimal and unique evocation: that of a bouquet of freshly picked mint.
Peppermint, Moroccan mint, the overwhelmingly refreshing scent of an ice-cold glass of mint tea. Crisp and invigorating, Menta y Menta takes us on an unusual green and aromatic journey. An unlikely pairing of mint and coffee, this scent is perfectly balanced to fuse the sharp green tones with a creamy, earthy, and smooth undertone in its base which grounds this sensual fragrance.
Almost watery in its freshness, Menta y Menta evokes that feeling of quenching a thirst on a hot summer’s day. It leaves you satisfied, cooled, and ready to step back out into the sun.

HOW IT WEARS
Menta y Menta is an Eau de Parfum that will give the wearer longevity of 6 – 8 hours on the skin. Obviously light and minty upon opening, the deeper, aromatic green tea and milky sap of jasmine wood, artfully combined with an infusion of coffee makes it a unique green scent that becomes something much deeper. A sensuous, woody dry down that you’ll be revisiting numerous times into its wear.
LORE LOVES
This scent is a real surprise. We love the depths this initially light, earthy green takes you to. Somewhere else quite unanticipated, despite the seeming assurance of its name. Fresh, earthy and sexy all at the same time. Intriguing and unexpected. Like a platonic friendship that blooms into romance.
ABOUT THE BRAND
Miller met Bertaux in Paris, 1985.
Both frequent travellers and natural-born creatives, Francis Miller and Patrick Bertaux became partners in life and business, setting down their suitcases in Paris’s Marais fashion district. They opened a boutique; showcasing their clothing, creations, and treasures brought back from their travels.
Their wanderlust next led them into the world of fragrance, and they began to create scents inspired by their lives and travels. An armful of flowers placed on the ground at a French market… a rose in the ear of a man from the Far East… the incense of a Mexican church… moments, stories, and images like these were transformed by Miller and Bertaux into fragrances wearable by anyone, anywhere.
Thirty years since they first met, Miller and Bertaux have now devoted themselves to the world of fragrance, describing their creations as “perfumes for body and soul, dedicated to those who choose the balance of being and appearing.”
