About

Declaration Fraiche opens with a vibrant, zesty bergamot punch, quickly joined by the dry, piquant freshness of coriander. As it settles, the heart emerges with the warm, earthy spice of cumin and green, aromatic cardamom. The base reveals a woody depth, grounding the fragrance with clean vetiver and dry cedar, all contributing to a sophisticated, refreshing aromatic woody scent.
