MON PARIS

A café table on Rue de something, mid-afternoon light, a bowl of wild strawberries left half-finished, that's the moment this opens on. Then the perfume takes over, sweeter and more insistent than the fruit ever was.

Strawberry and raspberry arrive first, glossed with pear, orange, and a snap of Calabrian bergamot and tangerine, bright, almost candied. The heart softens into peony, Jasmine Sambac, and Chinese jasmine, with datura and orange blossom adding a narcotic, slightly wild edge. It settles on Indonesian patchouli leaf and patchouli, warmed by white musk, vanilla, ambroxan, and cedar, a base with real weight under all that fruit.

For the woman who wants sweetness with teeth, worn on spring afternoons, first dates, or any night she wants to be remembered as the one who smelled like trouble in the best way. Our interpretation is hand-poured as an Extrait de Parfum, 30% oils, for an 8-10 hour trail. Hand-poured in small batches in Richardson, TX.

Blooms gently up close, then rests as a 6-8 hour second skin. Hand-poured in small batches in Richardson, TX as an Extrait de Parfum, 30% fragrance oils versus the 15-20% typical of an Eau de Parfum, so a little goes a long way. Reach for it on anniversary evenings, weekend escapes, and any room you want to own quietly. Made for our Spring selection.
