Chypre-Siam

Which Should You Buy?
This isn't your grandma's dainty floral water. Jolie Madame is a bona fide 'statement' fragrance - a bold, often polarizing leathery chypre with an arresting violet heart. Be warned: vintage and modern formulations offer rather different experiences.
Chypre-Siam is a glorious, unapologetically vintage chypre that splits opinion right down the middle. For some, it's a classy, authentic nod to the past; for others, it's a dated, overwhelming "grandmother's scent". If you crave oakmoss and proper perfumery, this is your jam.
