About

The Revenge of Lady Blanche opens with the crisp, verdant bite of narcissus, enveloped in a veil of fresh green stems and dew. A heart of buttery orris and sweet pea lends a soft, powdery elegance, evoking silk gloves and afternoon tea. Underneath, creamy sandalwood and powdery musk anchor the scent with a gentle warmth, while the green facet lingers throughout. This is a perfume of subtle aristocracy - an olfactory portrait of a poised, enigmatic lady with a secretive smile.
