The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2002 and crafted by perfumer Anne Flipo, Tendre Kiss is a Floral fragrance from Lalique that captures the essence of a tender embrace. The scent opens with the bright, juicy notes of litchi and red berries, which give way to the warmth of pink pepper and rose. Nutmeg adds an unexpected spiciness, while labdanum and sandalwood create a soft, musky base. This fragrance is a harmonious blend of sweetness and subtle spice, evoking a sense of delicate intimacy.

How to wear it

Apply Tendre Kiss with a light hand; its fruity top notes dissipate quickly, but the musky base lingers throughout the day. It’s best for daytime wear, where it reads as a gentle, comforting presence rather than a bold statement.
