Jean-Marc ChaillanLoc Dong

"Provocative Woman is a feminine amber-floral Eau de Parfum introduced in 2004. Its character begins with a bright, fruity and gently spicy opening built around quince, ginger, lotus, raspberry and peach. The heart develops into a soft floral and tropical-toned blend featuring orchid, pink freesia, apricot and papaya. A warm drydown of sandalwood, hinoki wood, amber, red amber, white tea and cedar gives the fragrance a smooth woody finish. The overall impression is soft, sensual and approachable rather than dark or aggressively provocative. It represents an accessible early-2000s style of feminine floral amber with noticeable fruity sweetness and polished woods."
