Launched in 2019 by Etat Libre d'Orange, Spice Must Flow is an Oriental Spicy fragrance that embodies the daring and unconventional spirit of its French perfume house. The composition opens with a bright burst of cardamom before transitioning to the warm embrace of Turkish rose and ginger. At its core lies incense, adding a smoky depth that contrasts beautifully against the floral heart. This fragrance challenges traditional notions of scent, much like Etat Libre d'Orange's reputation for pushing boundaries in perfumery.

Application Tips
This fragrance is best applied in thin layers. The top notes fade quickly, but the warmth of the base lingers for hours. It reads well close to skin, so a light mist on your pulse points will keep you enveloped in its complex embrace all day long.
