The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2007 by M. Micallef and crafted by perfumer Jean-Claude Astier, Les 4 Saisons: White Sea is a citrus aromatic fragrance that captures the essence of crisp, coastal breezes. The composition opens with bright notes of lavender, rosemary, bergamot, and Amalfi lemon, creating an invigorating freshness. This gives way to a heart of geranium and iris, adding subtle floral nuances before settling into a woody base of patchouli, amber, and musk. It is a scent that embodies the refreshing clarity of dawn by the sea.
This fragrance is best applied in lighter sprays — it opens with a bright citrus-aromatic accord that fades within an hour. The woody base notes emerge slowly over time, making it ideal for daytime wear when you want a fresh scent that evolves throughout the day.
