The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Lippizan by Parfums de Marly was launched in 2009 and crafted by Sidonie Lancesseur. This woody chypre composition opens with a vibrant green and aromatic blend of clary sage, thyme, tarragon, cardamom, Amalfi lemon, and bergamot. The heart brings soft florals like rose, jasmine, and iris, which are then grounded by earthy accords of vetiver, Virginia cedar, patchouli, oak moss, leather, musk, amber, and vanilla. Lippizan is a fragrance that captures the essence of an alpine meadow in late summer, where the crisp air carries hints of woodsmoke from distant fires.

How to wear it

Apply Lippizan in light layers to allow its complex accords to unfold gradually. The aromatic and green top notes fade quickly, but the earthy base notes will linger for hours, making it ideal for an afternoon or evening out.
