L'Artisan Parfumeur Limited Editions 2007

Just in time for the holiday season... L'Artisan Parfumeur has released their 2007 Limited Editions... and we could not be more excited. Iris Pallida 2007 - is one of the most incredible fragrances I have ever worn. I just can't seem to get enough of it the past couple of days...

The tender sweetness of the blue flower top notes, with their fresh floral scent, slightly green, is redolent of lily of the valley, softened by suave powdery notes with marshmallow accents, essences of orange blossom, Turkish rose and star aniseed, that a violet leaf absolu renders tenderly infantile.

In the velvety, floral-wood middle notes, hints of cedar, vetiver, and patchouli merge with the depth of the Iris absolu creating an almost gourmet accent, reminiscent of chocolate.. Woody and floral, it emerges without artifice, in its most extreme subletly.

The base notes, with their warm, lingery woody nuances, ambrette seeds and white musks, blend with the vibrant Iris, rendering it slightly powdery without overstating its natural. Smoke accents of guaiac harmonise with patchouli, bringing a light leathery effect to this complex note of warm wood.

L'Artisan also reintroduces Fleur d'Oranger this year... The rare and ephemeral fragrance of a sublimated exceptionnal harvest. The fragrance of an outstanding orange flower, harvested in Tunisia, in the fields of Nabeul and specially reserved for L'Artisan Parfumeur.

Fresh and suave, both virginal and sensual, this Eau de Parfum evokes the dizzy scent of Tunisian orange trees blossoms and the almond sweetness of an oriental pastry.

Let this Orange Blossom surprise you! It is a limited edition (2990 bottles), unique and irresistible. Once the vintage is exhausted, it can not be recreated.

Hope all is well in your corner of the world. Fragrant shopping!!
