Lily, Honeyed Notes
Tonka Bean, Oak Wood, Animal Notes
Luminous, sun-drenched and carnal, Fleur d’oranger 2009 reinterprets Ange ou Démon’s original scent. For the fifth year in a row, Givenchy presents a limited edition of their most emblematic perfumes recomposed around a flower that had an exceptional harvest the preceding year. This year, Ange ou Démon features orange blossom from Egypt’s Nile Valley. The orange-blossom groves are crisscrossed with irrigation canals. That’s what makes Nile Valley orange blossom unique: it is watered by a constant stream of water. Also worth looking out for: Indian sambac jasmine for Organza, Moroccan Centifolia rose for Very Irrésistible, and French mimosa from Grasse for Amarige
The fragrance’s extra-fresh opening blends mandarin-orange with orange-blossom absolute. In the heart, lily twines with orange blossom’s honeyed tones before evolving towards a newly reworked sensuality. The trail reveals slightly animal notes that melt into the warm accords of oak wood and tonka bean.
3 oz. limited edition eau de parfum.
For the 2009-harvest edition, the rounded-edged cube comes in a white package with a floral pattern. The pattern is echoed on the bottle, too.
