Le Budoir Turc
Fragrance notes
Character
The dinner party has moved to the sitting room, where a woman in a silk dress leans against a velvet armchair and lifts a glass of cold water to her lips. A bright spray of citruses sits in the air around her, clean and immediate, while the room itself carries the damp coolness of sea notes that drift in from the open balcony doors. Jasmine rises from her skin next, soft and luminous, and the gentle hum of hedione makes the flower feel expansive rather than heavy. A thread of licorice runs through the heart, adding a dark, slightly bitter edge that keeps the white floral accords from becoming too pretty.
Around her waist and in the fold of her sleeves, vanilla and tonka bean begin to warm the air, smooth and slightly powdery. Patchouli anchors the blend with an earthy green depth, and sandalwood rounds the base into something creamy and close. The overall impression is floral and fresh at first, then increasingly woody and aromatic as the evening continues. Marine and citrus accords linger near the surface, while warm spicy and green facets settle lower. It is a chypre floral that feels both composed and relaxed, perfectly suited to the late hour and the quiet conversation. White floral.
