The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 1997 by Francoise Caron for Kenzo, Ca Sent Beau is a unisex EDP that blends the freshness of citrus and aromatic notes with the rich warmth of tuberose, ylang-ylang, and vanilla. The fragrance opens with mandarin orange and bergamot, creating an initial burst of brightness before transitioning into the heart of coriander, African orange flower, and jasmine. This leads to a warm base of patchouli, vetiver, amber, and vanilla, which adds depth and complexity. Ca Sent Beau is a composition that marries modern freshness with traditional floral richness.
Apply Ca Sent Beau to pulse points for a subtle yet lingering effect. The initial burst of citrus fades quickly, so aim for areas like wrists and neck where warmth can help prolong its presence. This fragrance is best suited for daytime or early evening wear when the warm base notes complement the floral heart without overpowering.
