Details & care
What it is: A baroque, sumptuous and symphonic perfume that required hundreds of trials to balance its expressive formula.
Fragrance story: A cross between a couture evening dress and the tales of 1001 nights, Portrait of a Lady is undoubtedly the perfume containing the strongest-ever dosage of rose essence and patchouli heart. Perfumer Dominique Ropion composed an scent based on an accord of benzoin, cinnamon, sandalwood and, above all, patchouli, musk and frankincense. A perfume evocative of sensuous beauty that attracts people like a magnet. A modern classic.
Style: Woody, crisp, citrus, fruity.
Notes: Rose, red fruits, cinnamon, benzoin, incense, patchouli, sandalwood, castoreum.
Mood: Sensuous, magnetic.
