Field notes, Frivole
Some encounters feel written in advance. Our arrival at Frivole marks the beginning of a new chapter in the story of Dyane. From the first moments, the place reveals its character: a bold aesthetic, contemporary elegance and that subtle balance between refinement and freedom from which the most beautiful collaborations emerge.
The encounter
This is where our first shared creation was born. Alongside mixologist Thibaud Sauvet, we imagined an exclusive recipe designed to translate the identity of Frivole into a porcelain vessel. A cocktail at 21% ABV, in which every ingredient was chosen with precision to tell a story.
French craft gin forms its backbone, bringing deep botanical freshness. Basil and yuzu syrup reveals a green tension lifted by delicate citrus brightness. A few drops of French bitters structure the whole with elegance, while French elderflower liqueur wraps the tasting in a long, airy floral softness.
The composition
“A PRECISE, BALANCED AND RESOLUTELY FRENCH COMPOSITION, CREATED TO EXTEND THE FRIVOLE EXPERIENCE FAR BEYOND THE FINAL SIP.”
The keepsake
As always at Dyane, content and container speak to one another. This recipe will live in a hand-painted porcelain bottle, a true art object designed to endure through time while elevating the moment of tasting.
This first day at Frivole did more than give birth to a cocktail. It laid the foundations of a shared vision: a living, creative and profoundly artisanal luxury, where mixology meets art and every bottle becomes the tangible memory of a unique experience.
