Escapade á Byzance

Oriental and highly seductive fragrance

Istanbul, a couple strolls through the city’s back-streets. At the local bazaar, a sensation of enveloping warmth is procured by a bouquet of spiced top notes : cardamom, ginger, cinnamon, saffron and clove. The Bosphorus. The senses are illuminated by middle notes of fresh grapefruit and juicy pomegranate. An Etesian breeze caresses the city. An oriental dancer appears like a mirage. She is unsettling and intoxicating, alongside the fumes of apple shisha and sustained notes of leather. The senses are lifted with the birth of new-found passion. A rich and opulent fragrance.
