Séville à l'Aube L'Artisan Parfumeur 2012

Sweet beewax full of orange blossom and a bit jasmine pollen. I think the addition of lavender, tobacco and olive blossom notes is what it gives it a complex creamy development connected with the sweetness of benzoin in the drydown. I don't find this one fresh at all, it is almost syrupy. Somehow it is more of a spring afternoon at Seville than Seville at sunset to me.

Whenever I use it in the open space, bees are literally following me.

I find it uplifting and special. Longevity is quite good and sillage can become heavy under warm sun.
