100 ml

An explosion of powdery petals with fruity mandarin and grapefruit notes, imbued with the levity of camellia and lily-of-the-valley, cradled by a base note of patchouli.

Native to the forests of the Far East, camellia is often associated with the southernmost regions of Japan, where it was once the subject of sacred rituals. As far back as 1783, it had already acquired an aura of prestige and fashion, thanks in no small part to Josephine de Beauharnais. Her passion was such that, as Empress of France, she would plant the flower in her gardens at the Château de Malmaison on the outskirts of Paris.

OLFACTORY NOTES

100 ml

The rose is the most widely grown flower in the world, leading to a certain ambiguity in the symbolism that surrounds it. Yet if there is a reason why this Queen of Flowers – as the rose is known – is so coveted, it is surely its close association with love and weddings.

A floral and powdery scent: akin in fragrance and perfection to a wild rose, growing in humid woodland, tentatively illuminated by some hopeful rays of sun as they push their way through the scattered clouds.
