The story behind the bottle.
Attraction by Lancôme, launched in 2003 and crafted by perfumers Daniela Andrier and Christian Biecher, is a Floral Woody Musk fragrance that captures the essence of femininity through its intricate blend of white florals and powdery woods. The composition opens with gardenia and ylang-ylang, adding a sweet yet crisp freshness to the top notes. As it evolves, the heart notes of iris and tuberose create an elegant and sensual bouquet, while the base notes of musk and cedar ground the fragrance with a warm and inviting touch.
Apply Attraction lightly to the pulse points — it blooms over time, and the base notes develop fully after about an hour. Ideal for daytime wear when you want a fragrance that evolves subtly throughout the day.
