Who it's for

Best for fans of opulent French floral-amber perfumery — natural territory for those drawn to fragrances such as Yves Saint Laurent Manifesto, Robert Piguet Fracas or Tom Ford Jasmin Rouge. The patchouli-and-sandalwood drydown gives it grown-up character; the white-floral heart adds opulent femininity. A natural choice for evenings, dinner dates and special occasions.

How to wear it

Spray onto pulse points — wrists, behind the ears, the base of the throat — from around 15 cm away. As an Eau de Parfum, expect strong projection in the first one to two hours and a soft, opulent floral skin scent for six to eight hours.
