Kilian Sunkissed Goddess EDP
Description
Kilian Sunkissed Goddess EDP is Calice Becker's award-winning ode to summer skin, a monoi-inspired blend of tiaré flower and ylang-ylang warmed by coconut and vanilla, anchored on guaiac wood and labdanum instead of the usual sugary beach-fragrance tropes. It won the Fragrance Foundation's 2025 "Fragrance of the Year, Women's Luxury" award.
