On April 11, the Fragrance Foundation France will honour men’s and women’s fragrances launched in the main channels of the French market in 2012. This year, the FiFi Awards France will also reward niche or rare perfumes sold in less than 100 points of sale.

In February, a list of one hundred rare fragrances launched in 2012 was sent to the 23 jury members (journalists, bloggers and perfume evaluators) [1], who noted each of them so as to select 10 finalists.

And the nominees are ...

 Amazingreen by Comme des Garçons
 Amyris femme by Maison Francis Kurkdjian
 Figuier Eden by Armani / Privé
 Lumière Blanche by Olfactive Studio
 Lys Fumé by Tom Ford
 Ombre de Hyacinth by Tom Ford
 Replica Beach Walk by Maison Martin Margiela
 Une voix noire by Serge Lutens
 Séville à l’Aube by l’Artisan Parfumeur
 Volutes de Diptyque

The jury’s final vote was held on March 19 and the Experts’ Award will be presented together with the other categories on April 11, 2013.
