The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2017 by Nathalie Lorson for Lalique, Amethyst Exquise is a Floral Fruity fragrance that captures the essence of refined sweetness and floral elegance. The composition opens with a burst of blackberry, black currant, and raspberry, creating an initial impression of rich, juicy fruitiness. This fruity opening gives way to a heart of heliotrope, orchid, and Bulgarian rose, which adds layers of softness and depth. The base notes of vanilla, benzoin, sandalwood, and gardenia provide warmth and a powdery finish that lingers on the skin.

How to wear it

For a balanced experience, apply one or two sprays to pulse points. The fruity top notes are vibrant but fleeting, so it's best enjoyed close to the skin rather than from afar. This fragrance pairs well with daytime activities but can also transition into early evening events.
