Application Tips

Apply L'Haleine des Dieux with two sprays to the pulse points. The aromatic opening notes are bright but short-lived, giving way to the rich base that gradually unfolds over time. This fragrance is best suited for evening wear when its warm and enveloping qualities can be fully appreciated.
