Urgent! please translate into french: 'grey smoke'?

I need it for a uni project -I am looking for a name for marketing a perfume brand, and it needs to sound sophisticated, and poetic! I am happy to deviate from 'grey smoke' slightly, as in 'grey birch', 'smoky birch', 'sombre', 'ashen' etc. (I have chosen these names as they reflect the nature of the fragrance)

please help! any suggestions would be highly appreciated!Urgent! please translate into french: 'grey smoke'?
I think pixie anne's idea about using argent (silver) is good. You can also use blanc (white) rather than grey.



Nu茅e d'argent, nu茅e blanche

Vapeur d'argent, vapeur blanche

Brise d'argent, brise blanche
Since you don't allow email, I'll answer here:

nu茅e (is a litterary form) = swarm, cloud

brise = breeze

Grey smoke in French: Humo gris.
fum茅e grise or fum茅e gris芒tre=grey smoke

cendres argent茅es= silver ashes
for grey smoke you have to name it "Fum茅 grise" in french but that doesn麓t make any sense for a perfume. The sound of the name guids the costumer to November, smog, car repair,

Grey isn麓t a good color if you wan麓t to sell anything. No good associations with it. For example you won麓t find any grey food (which you can enjoy) nor grey flowers.

If it麓s necessery to include the "grey" think about grey animals. Wolfs, German shepards, some grey birds.

i think fum茅e argent茅 is a little nicer, or bouleau argent茅 (silver birch) or even fum茅e bouleau (birch smoke)
