The story behind the bottle.
Parfum d'Ete 2002 by Kenzo, launched in 2002 and crafted by perfumer Antoine Lie, is a floral green fragrance that embodies the essence of summer. The composition opens with fresh green notes and lily-of-the-valley before transitioning into a heart of jasmine and hyacinth, which adds warmth and depth. Sandalwood and white musk provide a soft, enveloping base, creating a balance between freshness and sensuality. This fragrance is not just an olfactory experience but a sensory journey through the vibrant hues and scents of a sunlit garden.
Apply Parfum d'Ete 2002 to pulse points for a gentle yet lasting effect. The green top notes are particularly fresh in the first hour, so a light spritz will ensure they don't overpower as the floral heart and musky base notes emerge gradually.
