This isn't just a simple lily of the valley; it's a divisive scent that some adore for its clean, fresh, almost soapy appeal, while others find it shrill, fleeting, or smelling suspiciously like bathroom cleaner.

About

A crisp, green opening gives way to a vibrant bouquet of white florals, with lily of the valley taking centre stage, complemented by hints of rose, jasmine, and ylang-ylang. The delicate floral heart is grounded by a whisper of musk, which some perceive as a soapy undertone. It's a clean, bright, and intensely floral experience, though some find a sharp, almost synthetic edge.
