About
Soleil de Provence by L'Artisan Parfumeur is a Floral fragrance for women and men. Soleil de Provence was launched in 2022. The nose behind this fragrance is Daphné Bugey. Top notes are Lemon and Bergamot; middle notes are Mimosa and Ylang-Ylang; base notes are Benzoin and Vanilla. In late 2022, L’Artisan Parfumeur presents Soleil de Provence as a new addition to the Les Paysages collection that pays tribute to French landscapes."Inspired by the sun-drenched landscapes of Provence, Soleil de Provence asserts itself like a warm smile with a sparkling freshness.Signed by the Master Perfumer Daphné Bugey, the fragrance first presents itself as an homage to the mimosa flower and its bright yellow colour that guides the road stretching from Bormes le Mimosas to Grasse.This ‘winter sun’ offers its green, floral and powdered notes with honeyed and woody facets to this luminous scent. Yellow comes up again with the sparkling freshness of lemon and bergamot.Sunshine is at the heart of Soleil de Provence, with the sun-soaked ylang-ylang flower and the heat emanating from the balmy notes of benjoin and vanilla. A joyous fragrance that remains close to its ingredients and embraces a southern art of living."Available as 100 ml Eau de Parfum.
