About

A beautiful spring garden, a moment of absolute happiness (“En passant” is French for “passing through”) served as an inspiration for Olivia Giacobetti to create this simple and tender composition from Frederic Malle’s favorite (according to interview) flower – lilac, surrounded by watery and green notes, cucumber and wheat. The concentration of this fragrance is 12%, volume 50, 100 ml package of 10 ml x 3. It was launched in 2000.
