The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2006 by Lancôme, Tropiques was crafted by perfumer Laurent Bruyère to evoke the lushness of tropical fruits and florals. The fragrance opens with a burst of raspberry, cranberry, and black currant, creating an immediate sense of juicy sweetness. As it evolves, mango blossom and jasmine add a delicate floral touch, while vanilla, tonka bean, and sandalwood ground the composition in warmth and depth. Tropiques is a vibrant ode to the tropics, capturing both the freshness of fruit and the richness of woodsy notes.
Apply Tropiques directly to pulse points for the best longevity. The fruity top notes are bright but fleeting, so allow it to settle for at least five minutes before heading out. This ensures that the warm vanilla and sandalwood base notes come through more prominently.
