The Perfume Atmosphere

When it comes to fragrances, there's simply no contradiction! The proof is in this daring duo created by Jean JACQUES. On the one hand, a violet leaf with fresh, herbaceous notes and a delicate planty quality. On the other, a fabulous essence of cinnamon that gives off all the warmth of its spicy, slightly peppery fragrance. You'd almost think you had a cinnamon stick under your nose!

Surprising from start to finish, L'Invitation au Voyage takes you on a sensory journey in two parts. Act 1: a whiff of sparkling, juicy mandarin and bergamot essences carries the green, watery notes of violet leaf. A hint of cardamom adds a spicy touch. Absolute freshness!

Act 2: a ballet of warm notes takes over. Between orange blossom absolute and geranium essence, the opulent floral heart becomes ignited by cinnamon... Supported by the elegance of cedar and guaiac wood, it warms further with the volutes of labdanum resin. A deliciously long-lasting finish, to be savoured on the skin for hours on end!
