Autumn Bouquets: the Elegance of Warm Colours
Copper, amber, burgundy: in autumn, L'Atelier d'Olivier composes warm-coloured bouquets on a generous scale, delivered in Paris and throughout France.
Which colours for an autumn bouquet?
An autumn bouquet is composed in the warm colours of the season: copper, amber, terracotta, burgundy, plum. These colours carry a depth that belongs to autumn. From afar, the bouquet forms a warm mass that catches the eye from the doorway; up close, dozens of shades answer one another, from honey to garnet.
At L'Atelier d'Olivier, our florists compose these bouquets by colour, with the finest the season offers on the day of your order. You choose a shade and a scale; they take care of the harmony.
Why choose a grand bouquet in autumn?
Autumn is the season of interiors, and a generous bouquet finds its natural place there: at the centre of a table, on a hall console, beside a fireplace. We come home, we turn on the lamps, we entertain; the bouquet accompanies this return indoors.
Sizes S, M and L are carried in one hand; from XL upwards, it takes two. Our Prestige bouquets are carried in both arms. Once placed, a grand bouquet settles in like a piece of furniture, and the room arranges itself around it.
Paris in autumn, at home
In Paris, autumn is recognised first by its light. It falls earlier, low and golden, and reaches deep into apartments. Café terraces close up, windows light up by late afternoon, dinners begin again.
It is the season when a bouquet transforms a room the most: its colours take over from the sun. In the evening, under lamplight, the warm tones grow even richer. This is the atmosphere we compose at the atelier, and deliver from Paris to all of France.
Who should you give an autumn bouquet to?
- To thank someone for a dinner: it arrives the next day, and the evening goes on.
- For an autumn birthday: warm colours speak of the warmth of the bond.
- For someone hosting at the weekend: it is already there when the guests ring.
- For yourself: it brings the season into your home, and it stays.
What message to write on the card?
On the card of an autumn bouquet, a few words are enough: they are what gets read again the next day. A line about a shared moment, a common memory, a date. The bouquet draws the eye; the card says why.
