Freshness, a vital requirement of everyday toilette, is always reflected in the character of English Lavender. Highly valued since the XIX century, English Lavender has learnt how to retain its charm over time. Its bouquet is still very modern: fresh, bold and natural. Its secret is locked away in its original English recipe still an inspiration today and in the precise choice of its lavender.

The base offers the preciousness of lavender essence and warm exotic woods. Its naturally vibrant and fresh top notes are characterized by a high content of lavender essence, rounded off by the soft touch of rosewood. Lavender and geranium provide its middle notes with the typical robust, bold and forceful middle “English lavender” notes.
