The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Les Tourterelles de Zelmis by Oriza L. Legrand was launched in 1913 and stands as a proof of the brand's enduring commitment to sophisticated elegance. This Oriental Floral fragrance opens with an invigorating combination of ivy, black pepper, and fresh spices that immediately catch the attention. The heart of May Rose, Bourbon Geranium, and Red Peony brings a lush floral bouquet to the forefront, while Turkish Rose adds depth and warmth. Saffron weaves through the composition, infusing it with an unexpected earthiness and complexity.

How to wear it

Apply Les Tourterelles de Zelmis lightly to pulse points — the saffron base develops slowly but lingers throughout the day. Given its complexity, it’s best experienced close to the skin rather than from a distance.
