Launched in 1968 by Estée Lauder, Estee Extrait is a floral aldehyde fragrance created by perfumers Bernard Chant and Betty Busse. The composition opens with bright aldehydes and lily-of-the-valley, giving way to a heart of jasmine, tuberose, and ylang-ylang, all anchored by earthy oakmoss and woody base notes like sandalwood and cedar. This fragrance is a proof of the brand's early focus on elegance and sophistication, capturing the essence of refined femininity.

Application Tips
Apply one or two sprays to your pulse points and allow it to settle for a few minutes before heading out. The aldehydes give an immediate impact, while the base notes develop slowly over time, ensuring the fragrance remains close to the skin throughout the day.
