Nathalie Lorson

"L'Impératrice is a bright fruity-floral Eau de Toilette with a fresh aquatic character. Its signature combines juicy watermelon and kiwi with tart rhubarb and a lively touch of pink pepper. Cyclamen and jasmine give the heart a clean, airy floral quality rather than a dense or creamy effect. Lemon tree, musk, and sandalwood create a lightly woody and musky drydown. The overall impression is modern, refreshing, feminine, and easy to wear in warm weather. Originally launched as D&G Anthology 3, it later became known simply as L'Impératrice."

“L'Impératrice is commonly described as a clean, modern, lively, and refreshing fruity-floral aquatic fragrance. Watermelon, kiwi, rhubarb, cyclamen, and musk form its recognizable signature. It is generally viewed as a bright daytime scent suited to spring and summer, with moderate to short-lasting performance and restrained sweetness.”
