Ever since they created their very first fragrance, back in 1976, the Orient has been a cherished theme at the house of Van Cleef & Arpels, a concept at the root of their inspiration. With ORIENS, Van Cleef & Arpels aims to recreate the olfactory splendor of the Orient in a bottle incorporating the codes of fine jewelry. Imposingly inspired by one of the house’s rings, it is set with a multi-color gemstone. Despite the name, ORIENS is not, olfactorily speaking, an oriental scent, but rather a modern chypre with oriental accents.
With ORIENS, Van Cleef proposes a journey to the heart of sensuality and opulence. The top notes of this olfactory adventure include waves of citrus blended with red berries, which gradually yield to a more floral, voluptuous heart of sun-drenched and jasmine-y notes, before patchouli, enhanced with a gourmand praline, introduces the warm and sensual trail. Perfumer: Bernard Ellena, Symrise
Eau de Parfum 1; 1.7 and 3.4 oz.; Scented body Lotion 5 oz.
The ‘jewelry bottle’, with its orange hues, was inspired by a ring set with a multi-color stone wrapped in metallic leaves.
