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.
Ambre Royal
Green notes, orange and bergamot give way quickly to jasmine, rose and osmanthus. Amber, patchouli and ambroxan then take over, settling into an opulent warmth that lasts.
