Our Fraise Royale fragrance captures the effervescent romance of an evening we spent in Reims, where the first pop of champagne mingles with the aroma of sun-ripened strawberries. Fresh strawberry slices and crystalline cane sugar sparkle atop a heart of juicy melon and pear, brightened by a sea salt breeze and the delicate freesia petals. Beneath the fizz, we have added a sophisticated base of white musk, suede, and cedar, warmed by bourbon vanilla, while pink pepper, black pepper, saffron, elemi, and olibanum lend a spicy, resinous intrigue - reminding us of various notes experienced in different Champagne Houses and Les crayères. This is a fragrance that shimmers with celebration - refined, joyful, and seductively French.

2 fresh strawberries, sliced and dipped in Caster (or other fine) Sugar
