Histoires de Parfums 1873 Colette Eau de Parfum

The incredibly playful and enchanting fragrance of 1873 Colette has secured its rightful place in the "Characters in Fragrances" collection, presented by the elite perfume brand Histoires De Parfums. In crafting this new composition, perfumer Gérald Ghislain drew inspiration from the works of the popular French writer of the early 20th century, Sidonie-Gabrielle Colette, whose writing is distinguished by its elegance and simplicity, the depth, and the complexity of her characters' emotional worlds.
The fragrance opens with a playful citrus accord of orange and tangerine notes, the fresh tartness of bergamot and lime, and the slight bitterness of grapefruit. The incredibly feminine heart of the perfume unfolds with the refined scents of orange blossom and violet, the cool notes of lavender and lily of the valley, and the honeyed pollen of wildflowers. A gentle caramel-vanilla trail with a hint of musk envelops with sensual warmth.
