Shalimar

Mon, 28 Nov 2011 17:33:01 +0000

The top note draws its freshness from a high dose of hesperides (especially bergamot). The floral hues that follow give the perfume a sense of escapism and opulence with embracing and powdery accents of iris, jasmine and rose. Iris leaves a sensual trail enhanced by the famous vanilla scent and balsamic notes such as opoponax.

Samsara

Mon, 28 Nov 2011 16:36:39 +0000

The freshness of bergamot melts into a floral bouquet of rose, jasmine, iris and ylang ylang. Sandalwood mingled with powdery accents brings sensuality to the composition.

Mitsouko

Mon, 28 Nov 2011 16:02:48 +0000

Mitsouko appeared on the market at a time when the tomboy style became fashionable; women began to claim new freedom and assert themselves. Mitsouko, one of the most famous chypre-based scents, satisfies the needs of this independent kind of woman: an original fragrance full of character.The basic accord is standard chypre, with a fresh bergamot top note, a fruity and floral peach, jasmine and rose-scented middle note, and, a characteristic of chypre scents, an end note of oakmoss and vetiver with a touch of pepper and cinnamon.

L'INSTANT DE GUERLAIN

Luminous and fragile, Chinese magnolia has the leading role. Both full-bodied and transparent, it evokes a romantic and mysterious moment. With white flowers like sambac jasmine and ylang-ylang in the supporting roles, along with vanilla, benzoin and musk accords, as well as a glimpse of a “citrus honey” accord.

Jicky

Fri, 18 Nov 2011 16:24:54 +0000

Jicky stands between a Chypre and oriental perfume and develops a fresh and aromatic top note with hints of lavender, bergamot and rosemary to blossom into a middle note of rose and jasmine. The woody end note with touches of tonka bean and vanilla brings softness and character to this elder among modern perfumes. Jicky is the first ''abstract'' perfume as it doesn't evoke any flower or raw material in particular.

Habit Rouge Eau de parfum

This new version transcribes the brazen sensuality of men of conviction, who bring out the sensations in every instant of life. Just lifting the cap is enough to discover the tempered burst of limette, orange and bergamot. It quickly draws you into the spicy heart, whose warmth and generosity are enhanced by upbeat neroli. Then dive with delight into the vanilla bottom, rounded out with patchouli, the gentleness of soft leather notes, and the tender sensuality of agarwood.
