Rencontre
Fragrance notes
Character
Rencontre opens with aldehydes and citruses that feel bright and slightly effervescent. The aldehydes add a clean, airy lift that keeps the citrus from feeling heavy or overly sweet. This introduction is brief and serves mainly to clear the way for the florals that follow.
The heart brings hyacinth, peony, cyclamen, and ylang-ylang together in a fresh, green floral blend. Hyacinth and cyclamen add a crisp, slightly watery edge, while peony softens the mix with a light petal quality. Ylang-ylang contributes a gentle richness that keeps the heart from leaning too sharp.
The drydown gives more space to oakmoss, cedar, tonka bean, and musk. Oakmoss and cedar provide a dry, woody foundation that grounds the earlier freshness. Tonka bean adds a smooth, mild sweetness, and musk wraps the base in a soft, close texture. The green and fresh spicy accords linger here, carried by the woods and moss.
This fragrance suits a bright morning in a garden when the air feels cool and clear. The floral and aldehydic notes stay prominent as the scent settles. It remains fresh, green, and woody through the final stage, closing on oakmoss and cedar.
