Launched in 1927 by Caron and crafted by Ernest Daltroff, Pois de Senteur is a floral masterpiece that captures the essence of delicate blossoms. The fragrance opens with hyacinth and tincture of rose, creating an immediate sense of elegance and refinement. Cyclamen and jasmine add layers of softness, while lily-of-the-valley brings a touch of green freshness to the composition. As it settles into its base notes of musk, sandalwood, and vanilla, Pois de Senteur transforms into a warm, powdery embrace that feels both lasting and intimate.

Application Tips
Apply Pois de Senteur in light layers — it's designed to be close-to-skin rather than overwhelming. The floral heart is most prominent within the first hour; by evening, the powdery base notes will dominate, making this fragrance ideal for a gentle day-to-night transition.
