Our verdict on Un Lys: Favourite

A divisive, photorealistic lily that either transports you to a serene garden or feels uncomfortably close to a funeral bouquet. Its purity is unmatched, but handle with care - it's an assertive floral that some find overwhelming.

About

Un Lys opens with the striking, indolic realism of a white lily, dewy and green, almost fizzy with pollen. This majestic white floral heart is softened by a delicate, slightly spicy vanilla, which introduces a creamy sweetness. A clean, ethereal musk underpins the composition, ensuring the lily remains the star, fading gently into a subtle, enveloping embrace.
