Armani Privé · 2012 · EDP

La Femme Nacre

Unspecified

La Femme Nacre, an exclusive limited edition of Pivoine Suzou, reveals a new preciousness. More than an extract, it is a truly an essence of purity and elegance, an olfactive tribute to the woman. Delicately enhanced with a precious and mesmerizing nacre lacquer, the bottle evokes the refined and mysterious side of the woman. With the same intense and majestic composition of Pivoine Suzou, this exceptional essence opens on a top note of pink pepper, which melts into a vibrant floral-iris heart, rounded out by hints of patchouli. Warm and vibrant base notes of amber and ambrette conclude the creation.
