By perfumer Patricia de NicolaïNicolaï Floral,Unisex Inspired by the royal orangeries commissioned by Louis XIV at Versailles to shelter his treasured citrus trees through the wint er, this majestic soliflore celebrates the orange tree in all its splendor. Patricia de Nicolaï draws upon every extraction technique to capture the very soul of the tree: the sparkling freshness of neroli and the vibrant greenness of petitgrain evoke newly awakened leaves, while the opulence of orange blossom absolute unfolds into a radiant solar accord. Rooted in the noble depth of orange wood, the composition reveals each facet of the tree, recreating the golden breath of spring in the gardens of the French court. As Patricia de Nicolaï explains: “This fragrance was born from a childhood memory: that magical moment in spring when the doors of the orangerie were finally opened. A wave of light and fragrance would wash over me — golden, floral, and enveloping. I wanted to capture that pure, untouched emotion.” Show more
