About

Le Chypre unfurls with a challenging opening of sweet, indolic white florals and bright clementine, quickly giving way to a rich, evolving heart. Here, a powdery iris and dewy hyacinth intertwine with earthy oakmoss and a plush, animalic leather accord. As it settles, warm amber and balsamic resins emerge, creating a sophisticated and enduring skin scent that's both sweet and subtly animalic, with a hint of dried plum.
