Sisley Perfume Guide: Eau du Soir, Soir de Lune & the Izia Rose
A French family house that released only a handful of perfumes — and refuses to discontinue any of them
What Is Sisley Perfume?
Sisley is a French luxury house founded in 1976 by Hubert d'Ornano and Countess Isabelle d'Ornano, still family-owned today. Alongside its botanical skincare, the house keeps a tiny, permanent perfume wardrobe: the green chypre Eau de Campagne (created with Jean-Claude Ellena in the mid-1970s), the floral chypre Eau du Soir (1990), the rose chypre Soir de Lune (2006) and the heirloom-rose Izia (2017). Because Sisley never discontinues its signatures, a 1990s Eau du Soir is recognisably the same fragrance sold today — which makes vintage Sisley bottles a safe entry into classic French perfumery.
Top 5 Sisley Perfumes Every Collector Should Know
- Eau du Soir (1990) — the house's defining floral chypre, composed by Jeannine Mongin with Hubert and Isabelle d'Ornano. Grapefruit and mandarin open onto rose, jasmine and ylang-ylang, over oakmoss, patchouli and amber.
- Soir de Lune (2006) — Dominique Ropion's rose chypre: citrus and spice up top, May rose absolute with mimosa in the heart, honey, oakmoss and sandalwood underneath. Dark blue flacon, moon-and-stars stopper.
- Izia (2017) — Amandine Clerc-Marie's rose, built around the Rose d'Ornano, an heirloom rose from Isabelle d'Ornano's garden. Rose with peony, cedar and musk.
- Eau du Soir annual limited editions (2001 onwards) — one single-run collector flacon a year: jewelled bottles, festive star or polka-dot coffrets. Never reissued.

How to Authenticate a Vintage Sisley Perfume
- Two signatures, one crest. Packaging prints the lower-case "sisley" wordmark with "PARIS", the credit line "CREATIONS HUBERT ISABELLE D'ORNANO", and an oval gold crown-and-shield crest. Fakes usually fumble the credit line.
- Match cap to fragrance. Eau du Soir wears a sculptural gold "crumpled leaf" stopper, Soir de Lune a silver crescent moon with stars, Izia a rose motif with a clear stopper.
- Batch codes and testers. Codes are printed on both box and glass base; a mismatch suggests repackaging. Genuine testers read "Demonstration / Tester — not for sale" and ship without a retail box.

Frequently Asked Questions About Sisley Perfume
Is Sisley Eau du Soir discontinued?
No — it has been in continuous production since 1990. What is discontinued is older stock: pre-reformulation bottles from the 1990s and 2000s, and the annual limited-edition flacons issued once a year since 2001, which are never reissued.
How do I spot a limited-edition Sisley bottle?
Later Eau du Soir editions print "Édition Limitée / Limited Edition" on the box, and annual collector flacons use decorated glass or jewelled caps. Soir de Lune's limited edition is the dark blue flacon with the moon-and-stars stopper.
