The story behind the bottle.
Honorine Blanc's 'Beyond Romance' by Ralph Lauren, launched in 2019, captures the essence of a warm embrace with its blend of sweet and powdery accords. The fragrance opens with a burst of raspberry and mandarin orange, creating a bright and fresh introduction that quickly transitions into a heart of rose de mai, lily-of-the-valley, and jasmine. These florals are enveloped in a base of vanilla, cashmeran, and white musk, resulting in a composition that is both comforting and romantic.
Apply Beyond Romance in light layers to let each note unfold gradually. The raspberry and mandarin orange top notes are fleeting but vibrant, so a second application can enhance their presence throughout the day. This fragrance reads best close to skin rather than across a room, making it ideal for intimate settings.
