More Invasion Barbare for you
Fougere
A traditional fougère is characterized by citrus top notes, an aromatic heart of lavender, roses or geranium that lay on a bed of oak moss and hay smelling coumarin. The name Fougère stems from the original perfume Fougère Royale, created in 1882 by the iconic perfumer Houbigant. As Houbigant said at the time, "if God had given ferns a scent, they would have smelled like Fougère Royale."
Amandine Marie
Perfumer Amandine Clerc Marie, well known for her rework of Chloé (2007), has been familiar in the world of perfumery as long as she can remember. The French perfumer designs lively, creative works of olfactive art that are never predictable. For MDCI, Marie created the romantic Peche Cardinal. A tropical floral with tuberose and peach; warm, soft and sensual. A fragrance that lingers on the skin that settles into a soft woody base of sandalwood and cedar.
