About

Fils de Joie drapes you in a rich, almost edible white floral embrace. Night-blooming jasmine takes centre stage, heady and indolic, softened by golden honey and the creamy sweetness of ylang-ylang. A deep, sensual musk underpins the composition, adding an animalic warmth that lingers on the skin.
