The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 1999 by Perfumer's Workshop, Samba Red Woman is a floral fragrance that balances bright yellow florals and powdery irises with the warmth of woody notes. The composition opens with a vibrant burst of yellow florals and white florals, which are immediately complemented by the soft, delicate presence of violet. As it evolves, the scent leans into its sweet and powdery aspects, creating an aroma that is both fresh and comforting.

How to wear it

Apply Samba Red Woman with two sprays; its moderate longevity and sillage mean it will stay close to your skin, offering a continuous warmth throughout the day. It pairs well with light layers in cooler weather but is also suitable for milder summer evenings.
