The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Harry Frémont crafted Portrait of New York - White Lily for Ralph Lauren in 2016, capturing the essence of a city with both elegance and warmth. The fragrance opens with the bright freshness of peach and pink pepper, creating a lively contrast against its softer, more enveloping base notes. At the heart, white lily takes center stage, blending seamlessly into Madagascar vanilla for an overall effect that is both sweet and subtly spicy.

How to wear it

Apply one or two sprays to your pulse points, as the fragrance develops best close to skin. The bright top notes fade quickly after an hour, but the white lily and vanilla base will linger for hours, making it ideal for daytime wear.
