L'Occitane, in collaboration with the renowned Givaudan Perfume House, has created a unique masterpiece in the history of perfumery: TERRE DE LUMIÈRE (Land of the Light). This fragrance is heralded as the first in a completely new category of perfumes: the Aromatic Gourmand.
TERRE DE LUMIÈRE is a complex, multifaceted fragrance designed to capture the beauty of the Provençal "Golden Hour."
Fragrance Progression:
Opening: The fragrance opens with fresh, invigorating notes of bergamot and spicy notes of ambrette seeds. Ambrette seeds are used extremely rarely in perfumery due to their incredibly high cost, giving the opening a unique, luxurious quality.
Heart: The heart of the fragrance unfolds with notes of lavender honey, possessing a warmth reminiscent of sunlight.
Base: Tonka beans and white acacia flowers leave a delicate musky-vanilla trail on the skin, recalling the sparkling golden-violet rays of the Golden Hour, the twilight period just before sunset in Provence.
FRAGRANCE PYRAMID:
