Launched in 2021 by Navitus Parfums and crafted by the renowned perfumer Dominique Ropion, Siesta Drive is a vivid Citrus Aromatic fragrance that captures the essence of a sun-drenched road trip. The composition opens with an invigorating blend of Calabrian bergamot, lime, Sicilian lemon, Florida grapefruit, and Italian mandarin. These bright citrus notes are punctuated by fresh spices like ginger and pink pepper, adding a lively, spicy edge. As the fragrance evolves, it reveals a creamy mascarpone cheese accord, which contrasts beautifully with the sharpness of petitgrain paraguay and juniper. The base notes of Madagascar vanilla, Haitian vetiver, and olibanum provide warmth and depth, grounding the composition in rich, earthy tones.

Application Tips
Siesta Drive is best applied in moderation — one or two sprays are enough to capture its essence. The fragrance blooms quickly, so give it a few minutes to settle into your skin before heading out. It’s ideal for daytime wear when you want a bright, invigorating scent that doesn't overpower.

Dominique Ropion is a daring perfectionist, a true inventor. The risks he takes are invariably accompanied by a relentless pursuit of exact olfactory balance and flawless composition. His perfumes are like great architectural feats: in the same way that a bridge, whose seemingly miraculous suspension of weight is in fact a harnessing of counteracting forces, Dominique often balances excessive doses of powerful ingredients with meticulously-measured, subtler accords, until the composition holds up on its own. A good perfume, he likes to say, must always appear obvious.
