The Story

Launched in 1973 by Estée Lauder and crafted by Vincent Marcello, Private Collection is a Floral Green fragrance that embodies the brand's commitment to elegance and sophistication. The composition opens with fresh green notes and lime, balanced by the bright citrus of bergamot and lemon. As it evolves, a lush bouquet of flowers such as hyacinth, jasmine, and rose emerges, creating a harmonious blend of floral richness. The base notes of oakmoss, cedar, sandalwood, and musk ground the fragrance with earthy warmth.

Application Tips

Apply Private Collection in light layers for the best effect. The green top notes are particularly vibrant but fade within an hour, so you might need to reapply later in the day. The woody base notes linger longer, making this fragrance ideal for a full day of wear.
