Launched in 2019 by Francesca Bianchi, Sex and the Sea Neroli is a Floral fragrance that seamlessly blends natural and synthetic notes to evoke an intriguing mix of warmth and freshness. The opening citrus and coconut notes are bright and inviting, creating a sun-drenched atmosphere before transitioning into a heart of floral and powdery accords that add depth and softness. The base of amber, vanilla, and animalic notes anchors the composition with a sensuous warmth, making it feel intimate yet expansive.

Application Tips
This fragrance blooms slowly on skin, so apply it an hour before you need to wear it. Two sprays are enough — the citrus top notes fade within an hour but leave behind the rich warmth of the base notes for hours.
