About the Fragrance

A solar perfume, as vibrant as the Greek sky, leaving on the skin a warm trail, like a memory of a dive in the Ionian Sea. A modern chypre overdosed with musk. Opening with a tart rhubarb, bright bergamot and elegant blackcurrant, the fragrance evolves towards a soft and delicate bouquet of geranium, rose and lily of the valley, leaving on the skin a sophisticated musk facetted with notes of patchouli and moss.
