The story behind the bottle.
First Premier Bouquet by Van Cleef & Arpels was launched in 2007 and is a Floral Fruity fragrance for women, created by perfumers Antoine Lie and Sonia Constant. The composition opens with a vibrant blend of bergamot and vodka, which adds an unexpected twist to the traditional floral bouquet. As it settles into its heart notes, sweet pea, lily-of-the-valley, rose, and jasmine create a lush and delicate floral blend. The base notes of musk, iris, and precious woods provide warmth and depth, making this fragrance both fresh and comforting.
Apply two sprays to pulse points and let it develop on skin. The initial burst of bergamot and vodka is fleeting, so give it time to transition into its floral heart. This fragrance is best enjoyed in the evening when its warmth and depth are most noticeable.
