Zernell Gillie Disco Extrait
Description
Disco is Zernell Gillie's time capsule of mirror balls, velvet ropes and the freedom of the dance floor. This aromatic extrait de parfum follows the arc of a whole night out: zesty bergamot, grapefruit and dry cardamom on arrival, lavender and tea leaves as the room heats up, then a warm, hazy glow of amber, myrrh, patchouli and vanilla that lingers after the music stops.
