The story behind the bottle.
Pomelo Paradis by Atelier Cologne was launched in 2015 as a vibrant expression of the brand's signature citrus-aromatic style. The fragrance opens with a burst of pink grapefruit and Calabrian mandarin, creating an immediate sense of freshness and brightness. This citrus-forward energy is complemented by green and fruity accords, including black currant and orange blossom, which add layers of complexity and depth. As the composition evolves, mint and Bulgarian rose introduce a subtle spiciness and floral warmth, while vetiver and amber anchor it with a rich, earthy foundation.
Pomelo Paradis has a bright and lively opening that fades within two hours. To ensure it lasts throughout the day, apply to pulse points in the morning for a subtle yet lasting aroma. Its fresh and green character makes it ideal for daytime wear.
