A Warm Floral
Avant et Apres by Isabey is a fragrance from the floral family, warm, creamy, I ordered the scent with my Pafory subscription. Released in 2022, the nose behind it is Marie Schnirer.
Radiant, a scent for bright days. The opening is green floral, I could swear I smell citrusy bergamot, after 1-2 minutes then warm, bright, and sweet floral. You can smell an opulent bouquet of white flowers. Monoi oil smells like a mix of coconut and Tiare and fits perfectly into the composition. Creamy and smooth, Ambroxan is supposed to bring in the fresh, mineral note, but I hardly smell it. Buttery, slightly tropical notes, sillage and longevity are top! The brand itself offers a sample set / discovery set with 6 fragrances. The vanilla here is balanced and subtle, the scent exudes classic French elegance. The bottle is beautiful, heavy, timeless, classic. Definitely a summer scent, but more floral than Eau de Soleil blanc. It slightly reminds me of Mornings in Milano by Birkholz. Or a cooler Terracotta by Guerlain, not so sunny and warm. No sunscreen vibes and therefore suitable for other seasons as well.
For me, not special enough to buy full size, but certainly interesting for a female fragrance collection.
About the brand:
Baron de Rothschild, a philanthropist and doctor, founded the Société Parisienne d’Essences Rares & de Parfums in 1924. The Isabey brand was born in Paris.
Not many fragrance brands can claim to have existed for 100 years.
