About

Mandrine explodes with a sunny, effervescent burst of bitter orange and zesty bergamot, immediately invoking images of Mediterranean groves. This isn't just a simple citrus though; a peppery, spicy warmth from thyme and petitgrain adds an aromatic depth, preventing it from veering into one-dimensional territory. It feels undeniably fresh, yet intriguing, with a lively green undercurrent that keeps it vibrant from first spritz to last.
