The story behind the bottle.
Beyond Paradise For Men by Estée Lauder was launched in 2004 and is a Woody Aromatic fragrance crafted by the renowned perfumer Calice Becker. It opens with a vibrant citrus-aromatic blend of grapefruit, bergamot, and lemon that brings an invigorating freshness to the composition. As it develops, hyacinth and orange blossom add a soft floral touch before the heart notes of honeysuckle, jasmine, and gardenia deepen the scent into a lush bouquet. The base notes of plum wood, amber, and hibiscus create a warm and enveloping finish, grounding the fragrance in rich woody and spicy tones.
Apply this fragrance in layers; start with one spray on your pulse points. The citrus top notes will fade within an hour, but the warm woodiness of the base notes will linger throughout the day. It pairs well with casual or formal attire, making it a versatile choice for various occasions.
