UN CŒUR EN MAI

All the freshness of Spring for a happy perfume which marks the awakening of the body and the senses. A light breeze, the first yellow balls of the mimosa, the heady caresses of the first roses which call for happiness and joyfulness.

When the brand decided to up the concentration of Un Coeur en Mai, the original formula risked running afoul of ever-stricter regulations. Undaunted, Patricia de Nicolaï stepped back into the lab and came out with an even more beautiful, tender and well-balanced version. Skimming off a smidge of pink pepper and clove, she's made her hyacinth and lily of the valley accord even truer to the tenderness of its name, “a heart in May”. Built on a fresh heart of rose and geranium enhanced with different tones of green – bright floral petitgrain, raspy blackcurrant and resinous galbanum – it unfurls like a delicate sprig of muguet under a springtime sun in a haze of fluffy musk. As an added bonus, this subtle tweak has allowed a stronger concentration and improved the lasting power: more to love for anyone who's fallen in love with this radiant tribute to spring, composed by a true master of perfumery.
