by Olivia Giacobetti

Our verdict on Tilleul: Favourite

A divisive scent, Tilleul is either a naturalistic linden dream or a floral disinfectant. Some find the watermelon note fleeting and the drydown heavenly, while others are put off by a peculiar 'spicy' or 'toilet freshener' nuance. Approach with caution.

About

Tilleul opens with a brisk, green watermelon rind, quickly ushering in the heart of blooming linden. This soft, sweet yellow floral is underscored by hints of petitgrain and a unique beeswax accord. As it settles, dry hay and a subtle honeyed warmth emerge, evoking a serene natural landscape with a touch of rustic charm.
