The Story

Love don't be shy Anniversary Edition, launched by By Kilian in 2022 and crafted by perfumer Calice Becker, is a sophisticated oriental vanilla fragrance that balances sweet florals with subtle spices. The composition opens with pink pepper and coriander, adding a soft spiciness to the bright citrus notes of neroli and bergamot. This freshness gives way to a heart of orange blossom, honeysuckle, iris, jasmine, and rose, creating an enveloping floral bouquet that is both familiar and luxurious. The base layers in musk, labdanum, vanilla, and caramel, grounding the scent with its warm and powdery undertones.

Application Tips

This fragrance blooms beautifully on skin over time, so one generous spritz will suffice. Allow it to settle for about half an hour before heading out; its powdery base notes emerge fully after the initial freshness fades.
