A tribute to the peace and harmony of a late summer afternoon; a fragrance that is pure, serene and enveloping.

A peaceful stroll through the wheat fields and almond trees as the light of a summer day wanes and the warmth of the air caresses your skin… Admiring the beauty of the sun as it starts dipping behind the rolling hills and bunches of wild roses and geraniums color the dimming countryside.

Their bountiful blooms release subtle droplets of nectar that float in the air and blend with the earthy scent of freshly cut wood, invading the early night…

This extrait opens with incandescent neroli, wrapped in nutty’n’buttery hints of pistachio and almond. Orange blossom reveals its full depth in the base, and the creamy richness of sandalwood and Peruvian balsam enhance the enfolding trail of this radiant perfume.

Merina, referencing the lushness of Spanish wool, opens with a blissful puff of almond that shapeshifts between floral heliotrope and creamy vanilla. Fennel adds structure to the softness with its delicate aniseed character. Almond and fennel continue to shimmer against each other as heady jasmine and powdery iris gently pulse. The whole effect is intimate and refined, leaving a skin-close trail that wraps you like a veil.
