You danced. Not just for me. Hazy in the balm mist. Your garment rustled and my heart trembled in the endless intoxication of a night.

Such a beautifully soft-balsamic classic! The interplay of the fragrance notes is almost multidimensional, and rarely does it blend°°°

A stunning floral scent with a distinct yet well-integrated animalic base. Heavy, lush, complex, and also demanding! Amazing!

A dance of blossoms, resins, and civet. Like an open question, the Idée fixe fades at Berlioz's ball. My heart, it remains the longing.

I already liked the EdT version a lot, but this one is even finer, waxier, harmoniously floral, resinous, and moderately animalic.

Baroque floral splendor with moderate sillage. Patchouli at the heart, resins, woods, and vanilla accompany the lush bouquet. A masterpiece!
