Greenpoint
A marine held up by flowers and wood rather than laid over nothing: pear and spice at the opening, sea notes and rose at the heart. The base swaps white musk for lichen and a macrocyclic musk.
Bal d'Afrique
Neroli and African marigold over a base of vetiver and musk. Luminous and airy — an evocation of 1920s Paris looking towards Africa.
