Perfect for hot weather, with delicate and elegant citrus notes. I absolutely love it, though it has very poor longevity and no sillage whatsoever. Still, what a delight to douse yourself from head to toe in this shower of mandarins, neroli, and aromatic herbs.

A very well-crafted citrus floral, gentlemen. It lacks optimal performance and no massive sillage, but it is pleasant and uplifting. On my skin, it sweetens, likely due to the bitter orange combined with a very subtle amber. It starts fresh and quickly transitions into a superb bitter orange. A bitter orange with faint woody notes that make it unisex, although to me it feels more feminine. It is not a youthful scent; it is mature and suits a classic style and formal wear perfectly. There is nothing sporty or casual about it. It is a hit in my country and sells well, though not to everyone. You won’t leave a trail; it’s more for personal enjoyment. I also buy the soap from the line, which is very refreshing. The perfume doesn’t quite match my personal style, but it is well-made. Another triumph from this century-old French house. An ethereal fragrance with subtle elegance.

A bottled exquisite. Mandarin, neroli, basil, bitter orange, and woods create a refined and moderate aroma that, far from being purely citrusy, leans more towards woody. It is one of those fragrances where you stop smelling it shortly after application, yet the scent lingers for hours even if you don’t notice it. Absolutely unisex: refined for her and subtle for him. Moderate sillage and longevity.
