ARQUISTE Misfit

Eau de Parfum
Bohemian Cashmere • Amber • Rebel

Step into the sultry heart of 19th‑century Marseille, where patchouli‑scented Kashmiri shawls draped decadently over boudoir beds and the city’s courtesans and bohemians redefined elegance. Once the preserve of the bourgeoisie, these exotic shawls fell out of favor—only to be embraced by misfits with style. Misfit celebrates this transformation: a cashmere‑soft amber and patchouli composition that turns an “undesirable” note into something irresistibly desirable.

Fragrance Story

September 1877, Port of Marseille. In a bedroom in the “City of Flesh,” a Kashmiri shawl exudes the smoky, sensual aroma of patchouli. No longer coveted by society’s elite, the shawls—and their scent—have become the hallmark of bohemians and courtesans. French lavender, musky ambers and exotic balsams mingle with patchouli, reclaiming its sensuality and giving it a daring new edge.
