Duo des Fleurs

OUR VERDICT

Earthy | Floral | Vivid

Named after the highly famous ‘flower duet’ from the Opera Lakmé (Léo Delibes). Accordingly, Duo is a gorgeous coupling of 3 roses and 3 jasmines, featuring 400+ jasmine sambac and 100+ Bulgarian rose flowers in every bottle.

Duo Des Fleurs brings rose and jasmine together, overdosed to bring out their rarer and more exquisite facets. This hinges on a contrast between dewy and arid, with impressions of tea, tobacco, and fruits of the sun.

The palpable softness of rose, with its lacy touch wraps around the blooming and slightly unctuous and indolic note of jasmine, producing an image of a garden where flowers and tendrils crawl across pavement warmed by the sun. Controlled and manicured chaos.

Providing the resonant base of this duo is an attar of sandalwood and baked earth, presenting an effective dryness reminiscent of terracotta and sun-blasted surfaces. Duo Des Fleurs demonstrates the joyful deceptiveness of simplicity.
