Perfumers
"L'Ombre dans L'Eau is a green floral fragrance centered on the contrast between black currant leaves and Bulgarian rose. Its opening is fresh, leafy, and lightly citrusy, with a distinctive tartness that gives the composition an astringent edge. The heart develops into a shaded rose impression rather than a soft or conventionally romantic floral accord. Ambergris, cedar, and musk create a restrained, naturalistic base with a slightly wild character. The Eau de Toilette remains relatively light and wearable while retaining a recognizable green signature. It is an expressive unisex fragrance suited to those who enjoy botanical, unconventional interpretations of rose."
