The story behind the bottle.
Vision in a Dream Mesmeric by Clive Christian is an Oriental Fougère fragrance that debuted in 2017 and was crafted by perfumer Beverley Bayne. This composition opens with aromatic and herbal notes, giving way to a green and almond-centric heart. The base offers a balsamic warmth that balances the bitter and fresh spicy elements. Clive Christian's heritage as a London-based house founded in 1999 brings an air of refined tradition to Vision in a Dream Mesmeric, where each note is carefully chosen to evoke both modernity and lastingness.
For optimal wear, apply Vision in a Dream Mesmeric to pulse points and allow it to settle before dressing. The green and almond notes are most noticeable initially, but the balsamic base develops over time, making this fragrance ideal for evening wear.
