The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2005 by Chloé, this fragrance was created by perfumers Carlos Benaïm and Clement Gavarry. It opens with a burst of pear and passionfruit, creating an immediate sense of freshness and fruitiness that contrasts beautifully with the smoky, woody base notes. The heart features water lily and gardenia, adding a delicate floral touch before birch and musk bring warmth and depth. This composition captures the essence of Chloé’s commitment to blending luxury with wearability, much like Gaby Aghion's vision for prêt-à-porter.
Apply one to two sprays on pulse points for a balanced experience. The fruity top notes are bright but fleeting, so allow time for the smoky and woody base to develop fully. This fragrance reads best in cooler weather when its warmth is most appreciated.
