1. Earth Meets Grass
Composed of the finest natural ingredients from Grasse, this luxury fragrance envelops skin in a sensual, woody floral scent that lingers on the skin long after it’s been sprayed. A heart of Indian sandalwood meets a silken floral bouquet of Turkish rose and Egyptian jasmine absolute, before drying down to a blend of myrrh resin and opoponax resin with hints of creamy vanilla. Housed in an elegant mandarin garnet bottle with a vibrant fuchsia tasse.
