Honey

April 1687, The Orangery, Versailles. More than a thousand Mediterranean trees are housed in the cathedral-like galleries of the Orangery. Built by the King’s architect to impress courtiers, the tree-lined space became a theatrical setting to entertain the Court. Inside, the gardeners would build bonfires to keep the trees warm so when the Sun King visited, the heady scent of firewood blended with his beloved orange blossoms would emit a generous golden aura.

Evoking a long winter’s day spent by the fire. Imagine aromas of apple and cinnamon pie and gingerbread wafting in from the oven. Oriental notes of spices and honey introduce character and softness into this comforting moment. The harmony of rum and tobacco adds a sweet and intense touch to the enchanting elixir. As we wrap ourselves in this perfume as if snuggling into a velvet armchair, we wish for time to stand still.

Leave a lasting impression with Fatale, the ultimate fragrance with provocative notes of spiced ginger, sweet honey, and refined tobacco, wrapped in a bed of sultry sandalwood. Seduce danger with this deliciously addicting spicy sweet wood.

Legend has it that an apple from a tree fell on Newton’s head – and thus, the theory of universal gravitation was born. But then let’s imagine a different scene – Newton, asleep under a rose bush. And instead of an apple, a flower falls, an enormous rose, a fully scented, fleshy rose. Would he have felt it? Would he have plunged his face into the heart of the flower? And what would this mean for his theory? This scent: A chypre! And a very precise and clear-cut formula, like something that falls on you, sudden and direct. And never leaves you. A trail of scent that holds on. Akigalawood and patchouli for a honeyed rose.

Lace drapes over the table for two, a single rose in a crystal vase. These moments are seen through infatuated eyes, and candle light. Love struck by the thought of love itself, centered in bliss. Live in this moment with notes of rose bouquet, sweet bourbon, and honey.

Prada Candy Florale starts out with flirty peonies and a sunlit limoncello sorbet. Slowly the lemon sweetness fades away and a heart filled with rich, dark caramel and honey replaces the citrusy, sugary goodness. A dry down of sheer, bright, musk spotlights the zingy limoncello, and elevates this delicious floral fragrance.

Neroli is blue-sky bright with lemon and neroli top notes, supported by soft, brushed orange blossom and jasmine tea. A brisk pink pepper note frames the focus of the citrus while a warm base of honey, bourbon vanilla and musk anchor the airy opening with their sweet, dark textures.
