The story behind the bottle.
Essence de la Vie by Swiss Arabian was launched in 2019, blending aromatic and woody accords with fresh spicy and fruity notes to create an intriguing composition. The fragrance opens with the crisp freshness of green apple and mint, balanced by the bright zest of Italian lemon. As it develops, ambroxan and tonka bean add a rich warmth, while geranium brings a floral depth. Vanilla, cedar, and vetiver round out the base, creating a comforting and enveloping finish.
Apply two sprays for a balanced experience — the initial freshness fades within an hour, but the base notes continue to evolve throughout the day. This scent reads better close to skin than in the air.
