HeartThe Soul
The story behind the bottle.
Elizabeth Arden's legacy in American elegance and skincare innovation provides a rich backdrop for this fragrance. This composition opens with a bright citrus-aromatic accord that immediately catches the attention, before transitioning to a heart of soft florals and musky undertones. The overall effect is one of crisp freshness and subtle warmth, making it suitable for both day and evening wear.
This fragrance is best applied in small amounts; one or two sprays are enough to capture its essence. The top notes fade quickly, but the base notes remain warm and comforting throughout the day.
