The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Quentin Bisch crafted Mandarina Corsica in 2018 for L'Artisan Parfumeur, a brand known for its original and delightful fragrances since the 1970s. This unisex parfum opens with mandarin orange and bitter orange, creating an inviting citrus brightness that immediately draws you in. The heart of immortelle, jasmine, and orange blossom adds a lush floral sweetness, while the base notes of caramel, vanilla, cinnamon, and sandalwood evoke warmth and comfort. It's a fragrance that oscillates between freshness and gourmand richness, making it both uplifting and indulgent.

How to wear it

Apply Mandarina Corsica to pulse points for an initial burst of citrus that gradually gives way to its gourmand base notes. The caramel and vanilla linger close to skin, so consider layering it with a light musk or woody scent for added depth.
