The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2006, Mandarine Tout Simplement by L'Artisan Parfumeur is crafted by perfumer Olivia Giacobetti and embodies the brand's commitment to original fragrances that delight both connoisseurs and lovers of perfume. This composition opens with a burst of mandarin citrus, which segues into a heart of floral and tropical notes, providing warmth and depth. The base features woody and lactonic accords that add a subtle, comforting finish.
Apply two sprays to your pulse points for a balanced experience. The mandarin top notes are bright but fleeting, so allow the fragrance time to develop on your skin before reapplying if needed. This works best in cooler weather when the woody base can add warmth.
