Acne Studios and Frédéric Malle launch bath and body collection

other · 2026-07-08

Acne Studios has broadened its partnership with the French fragrance brand Éditions de Parfums Frédéric Malle by launching a bath and body collection that enhances their inaugural fragrance set to debut in 2024. This new range features a Body Wash and Body Milk, crafted to intensify the scent of the original eau de parfum, which combines aldehydes with rose, peach, vanilla, sandalwood, and musk. Perfumer Suzy Le Helley collaborated with Frédéric Malle and Acne's Jonny Johansson to create these products. The Body Milk incorporates shea butter and natural oils for moisture, while the Body Wash imparts a subtle fragrance. Le Helley highlighted the scent as one of the pioneering aldehydic gourmand fine fragrances, celebrated for its lasting power and significant sillage. The collaboration seeks to blend the unconventional, niche aesthetics of both brands, presenting a 'neoclassical perfume with an irreverent twist.' The bath and body collection is now available.
