The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2003 by L'Artisan Parfumeur and crafted by perfumer Anne Flipo, Un Zeste d'Été is a refreshing Chypre fragrance that captures the essence of a sunlit summer day. The composition opens with bright citrus and aromatic notes, creating an invigorating freshness that feels like a burst of morning light. As it settles into a heart of white floral and fresh spicy accords, Un Zeste d'Été evolves into a warm, woody base that provides both comfort and depth.

How to wear it

One to two sprays are sufficient — the citrus-aromatic top notes are bright but fleeting. The woody base develops over time, making it ideal for daytime wear when you want a fragrance that evolves naturally throughout your day.
