Saharienne

Description

This unusual eau opens with a bouquet of citrus. The more floral heart also unveils green notes of galbanum and cassis bud. Pink pepper twines with ginger to grant the fragrance a spicy temperament. The sunnier trail is warmed up with wood and pine needles. The final outcome is a neo-cologne with lightly floral, soapy and spicy tonalities. Perfumers: Carlos Benaïm and Anne Flipo, IFF.

The hottest of fresh eaus

History

Saharienne is an homage to Yves Saint Laurent’s iconic laced jacket. Described as untamed and provocative, this fresh eau is ‘a one-way ticket to escape from it all,’ a voyage to the heart of the Sahara, the largest desert in the world. The fragrance is like a refreshing citrus oasis in the ‘ardent sunshine,’ ‘blinding sand’ and intoxicatingly warm, pure air.
