Dolce Riviera

Imagine white linens drying in the full sun, the calm of a summer afternoon by the sea, warm and luminous skin after a day outdoors. Some fragrances capture a colour, and this one is a soft, velvety, almost milky white. A soothing bubble that prolongs the carefree feeling of holidays and wraps the skin in sun-kissed purity.

A white patchouli of sun-kissed purity

This eau de parfum reinvents patchouli, the house's historic material, in a luminous, airy version. Far from dense, earthy interpretations, here patchouli becomes discreet and enveloping: it structures the trail without ever dominating it, true to the house's philosophy of parfums-matière. White hawthorn flower, the cottony softness of white musks and the creaminess of sandalwood come together in a scent that is both radiant and clean, warming the skin like a ray of sunshine.

The meeting of white musk and patchouli

The heart of the fragrance rests on an accord between two emblematic materials of perfumery. White musk evokes purity and a natural cocoon-like effect; patchouli, worked in its most luminous facet, brings character without weight. Over this duo unfolds a powdery, slightly creamy floral heart, lit up at the top by the sparkling freshness of aldehydes.

An accessible niche perfume, with a dolce vita spirit

Belonging to the maison's Mediterranean universe — alongside the mimosa creation that shares its southern sun — this fragrance brings together the character, creativity and rigour of a confidential perfumery. It is a unisex eau de parfum: its woody and musky facets make it just as fitting a choice for a woman as for a man. Between white musks, patchouli and powdery notes, it captures the feeling of an eternal summer where warm light, sea breeze and serenity combine.

Occasions, longevity and trail

Summer is its time par excellence: it can be sprayed during the day or at nightfall, at a sunset dinner, and slips naturally into a suitcase bound for a sunny destination. Like many white patchouli perfumes, it stands out for its long-lasting presence on the skin; it doesn't need to be reapplied, and its scent remains perceptible from morning to night, both on the skin and on clothes.

The art of layering

Its airy elegance makes it a versatile base to layer with other creations from the maison:

• With the house's mimosa fragrance, for a more intense floral luminosity.
• With a sweet almond gourmand creation, for a delicately indulgent touch.
• With a white floral composition, for amplified freshness.
• With a woody, spicy accord, for an unexpected depth.

How to use

Spray the fragrance onto pulse points, where the warmth of the skin releases and prolongs its trail.

• On the wrists
• On the neck
• On the inside of the elbows
