Shalimar

The founding oriental: bergamot, iris and an ambered vanilla that never seems to fade. A monument of French perfumery.

La Tosca

La Tosca opens on cold-pressed Italian lemon and green mandarin, then a heart of Bulgarian rose, eucalyptus and violet leaves. Patchouli, Madagascar vanilla, amber and musk make up the base.
