Contes de Parfums Sydney EDP

Description

Contes de Parfums Sydney EDP is a fresh, salty marine-woody scent that tells the story of a day on the harbour: a late breakfast on a rose-scented terrace, the Opera House against a blue sky, then the wind and open water. It was composed by Ramon Monegal, whose own passion for sailing inspired it. Sea notes, bergamot and pineapple open it, pink pepper, nutmeg, jasmine and rose fill the heart, and cedar, musk, amberwood and oakmoss form the dry, woody deck beneath.

Scent Character
