The story behind the bottle.
La Chasse aux Papillons by L'Artisan Parfumeur was launched in 1999 and crafted by perfumer Anne Flipo. The fragrance is a Floral composition that opens with white floral and yellow floral notes, creating an initial impression of delicate sweetness. As it evolves, the scent reveals a deeper layer of tuberose and animalic accords, adding warmth and complexity. This juxtaposition creates a distinctive olfactory experience that is both refined and intriguing.
Apply a small amount to pulse points; the white floral top notes are delicate but linger well into the heart notes. The animalic base will bloom over time, so allow it to settle for at least an hour before going out.
